The 67th Mechanised Brigade (67-ма окрема механізована бригада) is the successor of the Right Sector paramilitary known as the Ukrainian Volunteer Corps and a unit of the Ukrainian Army, the reformation of the UVC took place in December 2022, according to Ukrainian media reports:
The Ukrainian volunteer corps “Right Sector” was reformatted into the 67th separate mechanized brigade “DUK” as part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
This was announced by the spokesman of the unit, Taras Korniyuk, congratulating December 12 on behalf of the 67th Army with the Day of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, to which “DUK” now belongs.
“From the welfare of like-minded people of the 2014 model, the unit has grown to several thousand brothers already of the 67th separate mechanized brigade “DUK” as part of the Armed Forces. However, the main features of the DUKivites have been preserved. Courage, nationalism and hatred of the enemy - this is what distinguishes the commanders and fighters of the unit, who are familiar with more than one front-line year,” Korniyuk wrote on Facebook.
It was initially known as the 67th Mechanised Brigade “DUK” (67-ма окрема механізована бригада «ДУК»)1, but the “DUK” shortform was later removed from the Brigade’s name and the unit was restructured after taking losses in early 2024.
