The State Border Service is increasing its combat capabilities. Another brigade-type unit has been created, which is already performing the task of repelling enemy aggression.

It was formed on the basis of the legendary Luhansk border detachment of the State Border Service of Ukraine. It was named "REVENGE" and is part of the brigades of the Offensive Guard.

Since the spring of 2014, the soldiers of the unit, led by their commander, the current head of the service, Serhiy Deinek, have given a worthy rebuff to Russian incursions. It was this unit that held the defense in Luhansk for the longest time out of all power structures. At the beginning of the summer of 2014, pro-Russian militants stormed the location of the unit's command for several days, firing from the houses of civilians in the regional center.

For almost ten years now, the border guards of the Luhansk detachment have been defending the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine with weapons in their hands. They showed themselves selflessly and professionally in the ATO, Operation of the United Forces. In 2018, the border detachment was named after the Hero of Ukraine, Colonel Yevgeny Pikus, an officer who heroically died in the Luhansk region in a battle with saboteurs, who were covered by Russian armored vehicles and aircraft.

From the first seconds of the enemy's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the border guards of the Luhansk detachment stood up to protect their native land. Fighters and unit commanders were hardened in the crucible of battles. They passed the hottest areas of the front several hundred kilometers away: Bakhmut, Liman, Rubizhne, Kreminna, Lysychansk, Severodonetsk, Popasna, Siversk, Fedorivka, Sviatohirsk and many others.

Only since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, 5 servicemen of the border detachment have been awarded the honorary title of Hero of Ukraine with the award of the Golden Star, 4 of them posthumously.

Currently, the Luhansk Border Detachment has been reformed into an Offensive Guard brigade with the symbolic name "REVENGE". And there is concrete symbolism in this, because, as the Head of the DPSU noted, the invaders will be able to feel it for themselves and for each of their brothers, from the first border guard who died on the night of February 24, 2022 - master sergeant Denys Tkach, who died during a battle with sabotage - the reconnaissance group at the "Milove" border service department will take concrete revenge on all those who died in this war.

It is worth noting that the combat capabilities of this unit have now been significantly increased, there are appropriate means - armored vehicles, special vehicles, anti-aircraft, artillery and anti-tank weapons, aerial reconnaissance and attack UAV systems, electronic warfare and reconnaissance equipment, modern MANPADS, sniper weapons, etc. At the same time, the servicemen of the Luhansk detachment underwent numerous training and coordination, both in Ukraine and abroad: in Great Britain, Spain, Germany and other countries.

  "The time will come when we will drive the enemy out of our land. "Revived to win" is the slogan of our "REVENGE", - the commander of the Luhansk border detachment, Colonel Oleksandr Osypets.

We have something to take revenge on the enemy!
