Pylyp Orlyk's March on the Right-bank Ukraine (Ukrainian: Похід Пилипа Орлика на Правобережну Україну) was the military campaign of the Hetman Pylyp Orlyk on the Right-bank Ukraine in January–March 1711 in order to liberate its territory from Moscow's troops and to restore the hetman's power.
Due to improper training, bad timing and betrayal of Tatar allies, the campaign ended in the defeat of Orlyk's troops and led to the loss of support for the hetman among the Ukrainian population.
