It should be noted that Ivan Babich, captain of the National Guard of Ukraine and senior officer of the staff planning and training service, said that the Offensive Guard would be replenished with a new "Charter" brigade.

The "Charter" was established as a Voluntary formation of territorial communities in Ukraine by a majority of civilians and has since developed into a brigade of the National Guard, joining the "Offensive Guard.

It should be noted that in Ukraine, eight brigades of the Offensive Guard have already been fully formed; they will come under the command of the Defense Forces after receiving a combat mission; moreover, additional units will be recruited.

For reference:

In early February, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine declared the establishment of volunteer battalions of the "Offensive Guard" to reclaim territories occupied by Russia.

Volunteers applying for admission to the Offensive Guard must select one of the eight brigades for service, formed from established units with combat experience.
