Mariupol Defenders

Description

Why is it important?

Since the task of protecting the city and the approaches to it is of the utmost importance to it has attracted the best units. The linear infantry battalion of the 36th Separate Brigade of marines is such an example. This navy unit, in an emergency, can protect both the city and its coastline. The battalion has participated in the battles of Shyrokine, Kominternove and Pyschevyk and contributed to  the significant expansion of controlled territories along with Mariupol itself.

Now the battalion is under the command of Major Vadim Sukharevskyi. Many may remember him as the first officer of the Armed Forces  who opened fire on the Russian invaders against  orders, thus saving the SBU "Alpha" unit.

It happened on April 13, 2014, while he was a senior lieutenant of the 80th Brigade. He is now a major, commanding a battalion of the 36th Brigade and aims to make it one of the best fighting units of the navy. The People’s Project decided to help and contribute to equipping the battalion before it became a serious problem.
