Significant changes are occurring in the composition of the 132nd separate motorized rifle brigade participating in the military operations of the Russian Federation in the territory of Ukraine. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to analysts from the DeepState project, this military unit is located in the temporarily occupied territory of Donetsk region, and its composition is mainly expanding due to illegal migrants. Previously, the brigade was primarily made up of local residents, particularly individuals from various districts of Donetsk region.
In recent months, however, the Russian command has drastically changed the composition, attracting many individuals from Central Asian countries who do not have legal status in the country. This process has taken on a mass character, fundamentally altering the overall appearance of the brigade.
According to reports, the command has recently assigned the task of reaching the eastern outskirts of the city of Dobropol to this military unit. This area is noteworthy as one of the important strategic points on the front.
According to DeepState sources, the 132nd brigade was established for the first time in 2014 and initially consisted mainly of individuals from the occupied territories of Donetsk region, who had a negative reputation in society — marginalized individuals and those who had committed various crimes. This brigade has been given a distinctive "reputation" and various debates and controversies have continued around it in subsequent years.
The DeepState project is an independent OSINT platform specializing in the rapid and accurate visualization of armed conflicts in Ukraine, working closely with the country's Ministry of Defense based on verified sources. The project's data is accepted as a reliable source by international experts and journalists.
Therefore, the changes in the composition of the 132nd brigade and the new tasks assigned to it are generating significant interest not only among military analysts but also among political scientists and the general public. There is a possibility that this situation could have a considerable impact on the overall situation at the front.
