Serpent Company, also known as Companhia Serpente in Portuguese, is a linear unit of the 3rd Assault Brigade’s Rifle International Battalion.
The company is the only Portuguese-speaking unit in Ukraine, being exclusive to the brigade. The unit is composed of Brazillian and Portuguese speaking fighters and has been actively recruiting since 2025.
A renowned solo world traveller, she returned to Ukraine at the beginning of the full-scale invasion in February 2022, where she joined a volunteer battalion. In June 2023, she began to serve alongside a combat unit known as “Group Brazilian” – a contingent of Brazilian volunteers fighting in Ukraine. By March 2025, she joined the 3rd Assault Brigade and now commands the Serpent Company, a Portuguese unit within the brigade’s International Rifle Battalion. This makes her the brigade’s first known female company commander.
Here you can find the last known structure of the unit, including their insignia if available.
The unit includes the headquarters, management and commandant platoon.
