about us

our combat path

The brigade was formed on December 22, 2022 in Transcarpathia. After several months of training and education, in May 2023, the newly formed military unit departed for the area of ​​combat missions.

The brigade entered the battle in the Zaporizhia direction and on June 7, 2023, in the area of ​​Malaya Tokmachka, it joined the counteroffensive of the Defense Forces. Then, our fighters destroyed the occupiers near the settlements of Robotyne, Verbove, Orikhiv and Novoprokopivka.

In February 2024, the 33rd was transferred to the Donetsk direction, where the brigade took part in heavy battles near the settlements of Pobeda, Dalne and Dachne. Meanwhile, our rifle battalions were beating the enemy near Chasovy Yar and Klishchiivka. Currently, the brigade's fighters continue to defend Ukraine.
