About the Legion

The Caucasus Legion, named after Zviad Gamsakhurdia, is a volunteer unit fighting on the side of Ukraine. We share one goal: freedom for Ukraine and for the peoples of the Caucasus.

We have chosen a technology-driven way of war. Unmanned systems, precise detection and pinpoint strikes on the enemy define an approach where professionalism, precision and accountability for every decision matter most.

In the Legion, people of different nations, cultures and faiths stand side by side. Discipline, mutual respect and honour make us one brotherhood.
