In brief
The best-known Donetsk separatist battalion of 2014, named in 2017 for its assassinated first commander; later a reconnaissance unit of the 1st Army Corps and, by public reporting, of the corps' Russian successor — carried as a lineage record because its current designation is not consistently reported.
