21 Sofrino operational brigade. Sofrino Special Purpose Brigade. There is nothing like it in Russia. Participation in military conflicts

In a separate brigade operational purpose(OBON) The annual celebration of the Central Regional Command of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia took place in Sofrino near Moscow. OBON TsRK VV MIA of Russia celebrated 24 years from the date of formation.

Perestroika, which swept across the expanses of the Soviet Union, caused bloody internecine conflicts. In this regard, in 1988, the Government of the USSR decided to create two operational brigades to perform special tasks for the protection public order, counteracting the growth of interethnic conflicts and the elimination of hotbeds of tension in the regions of the country. One of these brigades was formed on October 10 on the basis of the 504 training regiment of the USSR Ministry of Internal Affairs near Moscow. On December 27, 1988, young soldiers from Sofrins took the oath for the first time. And on February 12, 1989, an order followed: forward, to Baku! From this city - the capital of Azerbaijan - the combat chronicle of the Sofri brigade began. As the former commander of the 21st OBRON, Major General Simachkov, noted at the celebrations on the occasion of the fifteenth anniversary of the brigade, all the difficult days for Russia can be traced through history combat way parts.

Then there was Georgia. It was the Sofrino brigade that was then on the night of April 9 in Tbilisi near the Gruzteleradio building, where a crowd of five to six thousand people, unpredictable in their actions, went wild. Almost immediately after those hot events from June 4 to August 21, the officers and sergeants of the brigade literally separated the warring Meskhetian Turks and Uzbeks with their bodies during the riots in the Ferghana Valley of the Uzbek SSR. Further, like a snowball, - Nagorno-Karabakh, Dushanbe, Armenia, the Nakhichevan Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, the performance of service and combat missions in Vilnius, Kabardino-Balkaria ...

Then, in 1991, the brigade suffered its first losses. In a firefight, covering the retreat of civilians and their subordinates in the vicinity of the village of Yukhara Jibikli in Karabakh, firing back to the last bullet, Lieutenant Oleg Babak and Private Maksimov were killed. Oleg Babak was posthumously awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.

Further, following the rapidly unfolding events of the 90s: the performance of combat missions in Makhachkala, the Mozdok and Allagir regions of North Ossetia, Nazran, the maintenance of the state of emergency in the villages of Brut and Kurtat, the village of Tarskoe, the North Ossetian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic ... During the bloody events of October 93 On the 1st near the White House, contrary to orders, the Sofrino brigade, led by deputy commander Vladimir Enyagin and brigade commander Vladimir Vasiliev, refused to participate in the siege of the Supreme Council and did not lead a column of armored vehicles to the Ostankino television center. The soldiers and officers of the brigade remained true to their oath and did not shed the blood of their brethren.

And two years later, the first Chechen campaign began (1995). And the Sofrints, as always, solve the tasks assigned to them: they participate in a special operation in the Staropromyslovsky district of Grozny, Argun, Gudermes, storm the settlements of Samashki, Bamut, Orekhovo. So in the battle on Bald Mountain near Bamut, a detachment of 34 military personnel was required to hold the height at any cost, while the main forces stormed the highland village. For five hours, the special forces held back the furious onslaught of the militants, who at the same time had an overwhelming numerical superiority. The distance between the opposing sides was reduced to 15-20 meters. When the unit, having completed the task, received the command to leave the battle, the unit commander was forced to call fire on himself. Breaking through, the fighters used almost all the ammunition, but each left one grenade - for himself.

In 1991, the last title of Hero of the Soviet Union (Gold Star No. 12772) was posthumously awarded to the lieutenant of the Internal Troops Russian Federation Oleg Yakovlevich Babak for courage and heroism in protecting the population in Nagorno-Karabakh.

After the Khasavyurt Agreement, the Sofri Brigade from 97 to 98 years. located in Dagestan. And on September 29, 1999, the 21st OBRON crossed the administrative border with the Chechen Republic and went on the offensive from the direction of Terekli - Mekteb - Kumili - Chervlenaya ... Special operations followed as part of the Northern United Group of Forces, the Eastern United Group of Forces, special operations in the settlements of Urus-Martan, Goity, Chechen-aul, Alkhan-Kala, Alkhan-Yurt... Already by this time, the command of the Joint Group of Federal Forces and the command of the VV and TFR had a firm opinion that the brigade reserve was one of the most combat-ready formations in the group. At this time, even Basayev, not inclined to compliments to Russian troops, said that "it is better not to fight with the Sofrinsky brigade."

On December 25, the Sofrintsy, as part of the Western United Group, advanced to the area of ​​​​the Staropromyslovsky district and on December 26 proceeded to storm Grozny. The brigade was attacking on a wide front with 4 battalions in one echelon. "Sofrintsy" were looking for weak spots in the defense of the enemy, ways of bypassing him. However, on the night of December 28, not yet knowing about it, they approached the main defensive line of the enemy and intuitively, also by the fire resistance of the enemy, felt that it was necessary to stop, prepare and proceed to the assault in the morning. And so it turned out. On December 29, from dawn until 11 p.m., a fierce battle did not stop along the entire front of the brigade. This fight did not stop until January 3, 2000. During these days, 33 soldiers of the brigade were killed. This terrible sacrifice of the war forced everyone to regroup their forces and means to defeat the bandits. It was during this period that information was received that the Sofrino brigade was no longer there, it had all died. During the period of restoring constitutional order in Chechnya, the Gold Star of the Hero of the Russian Federation was awarded to Major General G.D. Fomenko and Private Bushmelev.

On March 11, 2003, the personnel was withdrawn from Grozny to the place of permanent deployment in the village of Sofrino near Moscow.

In memory of a hero

On September 27, 2012, in the Pushkinsky district of the Moscow region, at the Ashukinskaya station in the park in memory of the soldiers of the Sofrino brigade of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, a monument to the Hero of the Soviet Union, Lieutenant Oleg Babak, was unveiled. The monument was designed by Honored Artist of Russia Elena Bezborodova. On the memorial stele of black granite there is a bronze bas-relief: the strong hands of a soldier, a tragically courageous look and childishly disheveled curls.

The opening ceremony was attended by the head of the Pushkinsky district Viktor Lisin, the command, military personnel and veterans of the Sofrino Brigade, representatives of the clergy of the Pushkinsky church district, teachers and students of schools in the Pushkinsky district, Oleg Babak's parents - Nadezhda Ivanovna and Yakov Andreevich.

After graduating from the Leningrad Higher Political School, he served in the Sofrino brigade of the Internal Troops of the USSR Ministry of Internal Affairs as a deputy company commander for political affairs. The servicemen of this unit participated in all, without exception, hostilities on the territory of the Fatherland: Baku, Ferghana, Tbilisi, Nagorno-Karabakh, Dagestan, Ossetia, the Chechen Republic and others.

In 1991, Soviet troops carried out a peacekeeping mission in Nagorno-Karabakh. In April 1991, a unit commanded by 24-year-old Oleg Babak controlled the area of ​​the Azerbaijani village of Yukhari Jibikli on the border with Armenia, near the Goris-Kafan highway.

On April 7, on the day of Holy Easter, a hundred Armenian militants burst into the village. To prevent the death of civilians, Oleg and the soldiers of his unit entered into battle with the militants. The forces were unequal. Then the lieutenant ordered everyone to retreat, while he himself remained to cover the retreat of civilians and his comrades. When he ran out of ammunition, Oleg Babak was killed by militants.
For courage and heroism shown in the performance of military duty, by the Decree of the President of the USSR of September 17, 1991, Oleg Babak was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union (posthumously).

Rector of the Temples of the Holy Icon Mother of God in the village of Artyomovo, the Savior of the Muranovo Estate Not Made by Hands, the Holy Blessed Prince Alexander Nevsky of the Sofrinsky Brigade of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Hegumen Feofan (Zamesov), responsible for interaction with military units and law enforcement agencies in the Pushkinsky District, and parishioners have long dreamed of creating a monument to Oleg Babak. Funds for its manufacture were collected by the whole world, part of the money was contributed by veterans of the Sofrino brigade of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.

It is symbolic that the opening and consecration of the monument took place on the feast of the Exaltation of the Holy and Life-Giving Cross of the Lord. All those gathered at the monument to Oleg Babak felt themselves involved in the triumph of love, courage and the strength of the human spirit over the satanic plans for the destruction of peaceful people. There were words of memory and gratitude to Oleg Babak for his feat, words of consolation and gratitude to the parents of the hero.

For 20 years of serving the Fatherland, the Sofrino brigade of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia lost 109 servicemen. The opening of the monument to the Hero confirms that the people of multinational Russia remember and keep the memory of their defenders.

The reason for the creation of a new part was the increasing cases of interethnic conflicts that took place in the late 1980s in the Union republics. For almost thirty years of history, the personnel of the brigade took part in hostilities more than once, and also guarded important state facilities.

Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs

This type of troops in the Soviet Union has existed since the late 1930s. The tasks of the BB were responsible for the implementation of the protection of important government facilities and the maintenance of public safety. In the 1990s, dozens of paramilitary units were divided along territorial lines by the former republics.

The status of official explosives was acquired only in 1992, when the corresponding law was adopted by the president. During the first and second Chechen wars, brigades of internal troops were involved in establishing constitutional order in the zones of local armed conflicts. The Sofrino brigade was no exception. In the conditions of hostilities, the personnel of the brigade showed courage and courage. Many of the guys were awarded high awards, some posthumously.

History of the Sofrino Brigade

Two months after the establishment of military unit 3641 in December 1988, the first oath of conscripts took place, and already in February 1989, the personnel were transferred to Azerbaijan. Thus began the path of glory for the Sofrino brigade, the military personnel participated in all serious conflicts that took place on the territory of the Russian Federation or the CIS from the late 1980s to the present day. Particularly frequent departures took place in the early - mid-1990s, when violent clashes for independence took place in almost all the former republics.

Today, the brigade provides assistance to law enforcement agencies during rallies, sports competitions, guards strategic military and medical facilities. Military personnel regularly patrol railway stations and have the right to detain suspicious persons. At the same time, in case of emergency, the personnel are always ready for prompt response and relocation to any point.

Participation in military conflicts

For two years (from 1989 to 1991), the 21st Sofrino brigade visited Georgia, where it held back an angry crowd during street rallies near Gruzteleradio, Uzbekistan, Nagorno-Karabakh, Dagestan, North Ossetia, and Armenia. Starting in 1995 Chechen war the personnel of the unit regularly took part in the liberation of the republic from radical Islamists. With the participation of explosives, several districts of the city were recaptured. The battle at when 34 servicemen were able to repulse an enemy that outnumbered them several times entered the brigade's history of glory.

After the end of the first Chechen war, the brigade was deployed in Dagestan, where it carried out law enforcement and was engaged in escorting columns of military equipment. From 1999 to 2003 the soldiers of the Sofrino unit were on the territory of Chechnya. After the liberation of Grozny, for several more years they participated in the liquidation of the remnants of terrorist groups.

In the late 1990s, the Sofrino brigade, as part of the Northern Joint Group of Forces, carried out special operations in many settlements of Chechnya. So, Urus-Martan was freed from terrorists, Personnel units enjoyed fame not only among the Russian troops, but also among the terrorists who tried not to get involved with the Sofrinovites.

Goals and objectives

Many years of military experience of the 21st OBRON VV of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation was not in vain. Today, this unit is considered one of the most prepared in terms of solving important state tasks. The main tasks of the VV are:

  • ensuring the internal security of the state and its interests;
  • implementation of public security during mass events or in places of conflict;
  • protection of the rights and freedoms of a citizen from criminal encroachments.

The internal troops have a good technical base, which allows them to quickly and efficiently respond if necessary. At the disposal of explosives are armored vehicles, aircraft, ships and motor vehicles. Already since the 1990s, the troops have been operating their own intelligence, following the example of the army.

Heroes and rewards

Over the 29 years of its existence, 109 people have died and more than 500 have been injured. The most tragic and at the same time heroic moment in the history of the brigade was an unequal battle near Bald Mountain in Chechnya. The commandos courageously withstood for 5 hours the onslaught of the enemy, far superior in number. The detachment was able to complete the task, but during the withdrawal was forced to call fire on itself. Until now, the military merits of the Sofrinsky brigade in Chechnya are honored and remembered. Every year, commemorative rallies are held on the territory of the unit with the laying of flowers at the monument dedicated to the fallen soldiers.

One of the soldiers of the Sofrino brigade, Oleg Babak, was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union posthumously. He died in Azerbaijan, fulfilling the duty of an officer to the last. On April 7, 1991, together with a group of servicemen, he went to the village of Yukhari Dzhibikily, where a local resident was killed. Upon arrival at the place, the detachment was surrounded by Armenian militants. Babak did not lose his head and fired back until his death. Thanks to his heroic actions, his colleagues and civilians remained alive. In 2012, a monument to Oleg Babak was unveiled at the station of the Ashukinsky Moscow Region.

Scandal

Despite the well-deserved fame of the Sofrino brigade of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, scandals did not bypass it. In 2002, at the Sofrino station, two special forces soldiers who served in military unit 3641 got into a bloody fight with the seller of a commercial stall. As a result, two people died and one was injured. Opinions about this incident diverged in exactly the opposite way. The units claimed that civilians provoked the soldiers into a fight, while the media said that the brutalized military tried to forcefully take a bottle of vodka from the seller.

It is known that this evening several officers and soldiers who went through the war in Chechnya and other hot spots celebrated the birthday of one of their colleagues. And at night, in an army truck, they went to a neighboring village for liquor. According to one of the guards, the drunken servicemen began to molest the saleswoman, and a verbal skirmish and a fight ensued. Then the guard drew his rifle and fired first into the air and then at the officers. One died on the spot, the other was seriously injured. During the flight of the special forces, another soldier was crushed by a truck in a hurry. The security guard was detained on the same night, a criminal case was initiated. And in part passed serious disciplinary checks.

Passing service

Today in the separate brigade operational purpose 21 includes: three battalions, a reconnaissance company and other additional units. It is considered an honor for a soldier to be here. There was an opinion about her as one of the safest and devoid of signs of hazing parts.

The soldiers of the Sofrino brigade undergo a course of combat training, participate in exercises and carry out work on the internal support of the unit. Since the unit has recently been part of the National Guard, there are some differences in the assigned outfits.

A medical unit operates on the territory of a paramilitary institution. However, in case of complex diseases or injuries, soldiers are transported to nearby hospitals of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Information for Parents of Recruits

The Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation have always been at the forefront, participated in the settlement of many conflicts both on the territory of Russia and in neighboring states. The Sofrino brigade is in a special position in the Ministry of the Interior, it is considered one of the best in terms of combat training. The personnel earned the trust of the authorities back in 1993, when the command of the unit flatly refused to storm the building of the Supreme Council during the events. The officers and soldiers confirmed their loyalty to the oath.

In 2013, an experiment began on staffing 21 operational brigades with contract servicemen, the purpose of which was to create conditions for maintaining troops in constant combat readiness. According to the idea of ​​​​the command, the Sofrinsky brigade in the event of armed conflicts had to carry out combined arms combat, as well as be able to navigate and conduct reconnaissance operations in cities and mountainous terrain. Thus, within a year of the experiment, a team of professionals capable of performing the most important combat missions was formed.

On the territory of military unit 12128 there is a post office, a chip, a stadium parade ground, a library, an infirmary, a canteen and an ATM. Surveillance cameras are installed around the perimeter of the garrison. Catering is organized by civilians, as well as cleaning the territory. But on Saturday, the soldiers have a traditional park and economic day.

Mobile phones are with the military, but must be turned off during classes or exercises. For the duration of inspections, communication means are handed over to the unit commander (an appropriate entry is made in the log book) to view messages, calls and visit their accounts on social networks. Soldiers receive MegaFon SIM cards as part of the Call Mom program at the military registration and enlistment office. If you need to buy a SIM card from one of the mobile operators, then there are two Euroset stores in Totsky-4.
The oath in such a unit as military unit 12128 takes place on Saturday at 10.00 am. After it, the fighters are allowed leave, until 20.00 Sunday on the security of a document of one of the parents or wife (passport or driver's license). To retire, a serviceman must write an application addressed to the commander of the unit before Thursday. Relatives should know that you can only pick up a soldier before the weekend until 17.00. Otherwise, the period of his leave is reduced and you can see each other only from 10.00 - 11.00 the next day. If the serviceman was not released on leave, relatives and friends can visit him in the visiting room at the checkpoint of the unit.

As for the monetary allowance, the employees of military unit 12128 receive it on a Sberbank card. On the territory of the garrison there is its ATM and another one - the Pushkin bank, and in Totskoy-4 itself - an ATM of Rosselkhozbank and VTB-24. A commission of 100 rubles is charged for withdrawing money from cards of other banks at the terminals of a part or village. You can replenish the soldier card like this:

  • Online banking transfer (practiced for VTB-24 and Sberbank of Russia);
  • At bank branches. The sender needs a passport, employee data (full name, card and passport number);
  • Transfer to a card of one bank from a card of another (mainly an online banking system) for any amount. A commission is charged: for VTB-24 - 50 rubles, and for Sberbank of Russia - 30 rubles.

The function of the hospital in Totskoye is performed by the infirmary at the medical unit and the clinic in the village. Sometimes a soldier is sent to hospitals in Orenburg (contact details are listed below).
