The servicemen gained a rich experience during numerous international peacekeeping operations, which they now use in the Anti-Terrorist Operation zone. One of the first serious tests for the 79th\u00a0Airbmobile Brigade was the assault of Savur-Mohyla. Russia-backed militants were aware of the strategic importance of this location; hence they allocated their most combat-ready troops. Ukrainian warriors made every effort to protect hold the position, leaving no chances for the militants to set up their own positions in the region.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/uacrisis.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/79-21.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazyload aligncenter wp-image-30496\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg' viewBox%3D'0 0 850 567'%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/uacrisis.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/79-21.jpg\" alt=\"79-2\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another important mission for the paratroopers was the operation to restore control over the parts of the Ukrainian-Russian border held by Russia-backed militants.

The name of Major Serhiy Kryvonosov will forever remain in the list of loyal sons of Ukraine. He was awarded with the title of the Hero of Ukraine posthumously for his courage demonstrated in battles against the aggressor and devout military service. The brigade is full heroes who continue to inspire new Ukrainian soldiers, such as Lieutenant Pavlo Tchaika. For his acts of bravery he became a full cavalier of the Order \u201cFor Courage\u201d \u2013 so far he is the only serviceman in the Ukrainian military history to have this honor.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"mace-gallery-teaser\"\n\tid=\"mace-gallery-39373-1\"\n\tdata-g1-gallery-title=\"\"\n\tdata-g1-gallery=\"[{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:39375,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;79-2&quot;,&quot;thumbnail&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/uacrisis.org\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2015\\\/08\\\/79-21-150x150.jpg&quot;,&quot;3-2-thumbnail&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/uacrisis.org\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2015\\\/08\\\/79-21.jpg&quot;,&quot;full&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/uacrisis.org\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2015\\\/08\\\/79-21.jpg&quot;}]\"\n\tdata-g1-share-shortlink=\"https:\/\/uacrisis.org\/en\/30489-79th-airmobile-brigade-in-the-hotspots-of-ato-zone#mace-gallery-39373-1\"\n\t>\n\t<a class=\"mace-gallery-teaser-poster\">\n\t\t<img width=\"613\" height=\"409\" src=\"https:\/\/uacrisis.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/79-21.jpg\" class=\"attachment-bimber-grid-standard-2x size-bimber-grid-standard-2x\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uacrisis.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/79-21.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/uacrisis.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/79-21-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/uacrisis.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/79-21-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 613px) 100vw, 613px\" \/>\t\t<span class=\"mace-gallery-teaser-button\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"g1-epsilon g1-epsilon-1st mace-gallery-teaser-button-text\">View Gallery<\/span>\n\t\t\t<span class=\"g1-meta mace-gallery-teaser-button-counter\">\n\t\t\t\t1 image\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t<\/a>\n<\/figure>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Foundation In the 1990s, the former Soviet 40th\u00a0Landing Assault Brigade was reformed in the airbmobile brigade.
