22nd Mechanized Brigade (Drone Battalion) & other units currently fighting in the Kursk region (Updated)
Ukraine's 22nd Brigade is probably one of those Ukrainian brigades with the most history. The unit was formed as the "66th Guards Rifle Division" during WW2 in 1943. After the unit met several reorganizations since Ukrainian independence, the 22nd Brigade was reactivated in 2023 in order to perform combat activities at the hottest places of the front.
Right now, the brigade is directly involved in the fighting of the Kursk Region (Russia)!
Update 7th August 24: Thanks to the extraordinary support from the whole community, we crushed our initial 40.000$ aim within only two days! That enables us a) to provide the 22nd Brigade with even more equipment and drones than initially anticipated, and b) to help other units which fight in the Kursk Region and bordering areas to Russia!
In particular, we would like to thank our partners and their communities for the big success of the fundraiser:
Ukraine Matters:
The Ukraine Matters community has literally crushed the initial aim of the fundraiser!
The community already finished successfully a UAO Drone-Jammer fundraiser in the past, but this time the community has surpassed itself: https://www.youtube.com/@UkraineMatters
CombatVeteranReacts:
After finishing the Toretsk fundraiser for the 241st Brigade in the critical Toretsk direction, Paul and his community also strongly contributed to the success of this fundraiser:

WarthogDefense:
The WarthogDefense community is a reliable partner in promoting our fundraisers. Also this time, the Warthog community helped to make this fundraiser a success:

Rima with the warriors of the 22nd Brigade! We provided FPV drones to the warriors!
Now, the male and female (!) pilots of the brigade's famous drone battalion reached out to us that they are in need of critical drone equipment. Like you know, drones save lives and enable our friends to see the enemy before the enemy sees them. We have helped the drone warriors of the 22nd Brigade before, so we know that their pilots are capable to make very good use of our support!
With a fundraising target of approx $40,000 we want to provide the drone pilots of the 22nd Brigade with the following items.
FPV Drones
Matrice 30T Drone
Ecoflows
Generators
Starlinks
Drone Jammers
Signal repeaters
The remainder of the fundraiser will first go to other brigades that fight alongside the 22nd Brigade in the offensive in the Kursk direction and after that towards units fighting in the bordering regions to Russia.

Putin, after 10 days of Kursk catastrophe, summons Stalin's ghost: Stalin: "What's happened?" Putin: "Nazis are at Kursk! My armies are beaten! What should I do?" Stalin: "Do like me in 1943. Send the best Ukrainian troops to the front, and ask the Allies for arms!"
