In 1994, the 13th Separate Airborne Battalion was allocated from Ukraine to participate in the international partnership "Process of planning and assessment of forces".

[4] The 13th Battalion, together with other units of the 95th Brigade, participated in the longest raid in modern military history through enemy rear lines.

During 21 days of fighting, the paratroopers, who actually broke the way for other troops, traveled 160 kilometers through the territories captured by the militants, destroying powerful enemy fortifications on the way.

One of the most heroic episodes of the legendary raid is the Battle in Shakhtarsk Raion, where the infantrymen and artillerymen came together with the paratroopers, which made it possible to knock out the enemy and gain a foothold on the heights.

After the unexpected start of massive artillery shelling from the territory of Russia and the resulting drastic change in the situation, the forces of the 13th battalion managed to lead a pontoon crossing across the Kalmius River.

They mastered their new military profession under enemy fire, and then for three days they were actually a commandant battalion that ensured order among those willing to cross the river as quickly as possible.

The paratroopers held the object for ten days, later they were replaced by fighters of the 11th Separate Motorized Infantry Battalion.

In the area controlled by the 13th Airmobile Battalion, the enemy's infantry was pinned down and could not operate effectively, several Russian units were defeated.

[11] On December 6, battalion commander Major Svyatoslav Zaits received the ribbon with the honorary title from the President of Ukraine.

[12] On November 17, 2022, the 13th Separate Airborne Assault Battalion named after the Hero of Ukraine, Colonel Taras Senyuk, of the 95th Separate Airborne Assault Brigade, was awarded the honorary award "For Courage and Courage" by the decree of the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
