Following the Revolution of Dignity, 30 additional Special Purpose Police Patrol Units were established to counter the 2014 pro-Russian unrest in Ukraine.

[2] The size of the Kyivschyna Battalion was designated to be 200 people, volunteers aged 19 to 45, veterans of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and former police officers.

[6] The foundation "Development and Protection of Kyiv Region" handed over 200 sets of combat uniforms to the Battalion.

[6] After a three-month stay in the ATO zone, the personnel returned to Kyiv Oblast for a short rest, where they were equipped and armed.

However, some locations of our unit sometimes continue to be shelled by mortars and heavy weapons: guns and howitzers.

We have information that despite the fact that the other side also received a clear order to cease fire, there are many who do not agree with it in the ranks of the militants themselves.

However, thanks to this truce, we have a good opportunity to solve a number of problems that were absolutely impossible to do before: we get weapons, equipment, and the personnel have time to practice tactical actions.

Everyone is terribly afraid that they will be left with the so-called DPR and LPR, because they know very well what is happening on the other side of the front line from their relatives and friends.
