The 165th Guards Prague Red Banner Artillery Brigade (military unit 02901) is part of the 35th Guards Combined Arms Army, stationed in Belogorsk, Amur Oblast. According to an InformNapalm investigation in 2016, servicemen of the unit were identified in the occupied territory of Ukraine in the area of the urban-type settlement of Sedove, Novoazovsk district, Donetsk Oblast — meaning the unit was already in the combat zone in Donbas before the full-scale invasion. According to media reports in 2022 about cases of Russian servicemen refusing to participate in combat operations, at least 46 servicemen from the 165th Artillery Brigade refused to fight.
