153rd Mechanized Brigade is a mechanized unit of Ukrainian Ground Forces, formed in the Autumn of 2023. The core of the brigade was built up around Nazariy Kishak’s group from 72nd Mechanized Brigade.

In April 2024, due to lack of vehicles for mechanized units, the brigade was reformed as 153rd Infantry Brigade, and reestablished as mechanized brigade in June 2024.
