126th Territorial Defense Brigade joins Marines

The Odesa’s territorial defense unit, 126th Brigade, has been assigned under the command of the Ukrainian Marine Corps. This adjustment was announced via the official social media channels of the brigade, and also confirmed by volunteers closely associated with the brigade.

Based on available information, the unit currently maintains its designation as the 126th Territorial Defense Brigade. However, discussions are underway to transform the unit into a fully-fledged marine brigade.

The change is part of ongoing reform of Territorial Defense Forces. We wrote about formation of 100th Mechanized Brigade on the basis of 100th Territorial Defense Brigade a few days ago.
