Despite attempts to rebuild, the brigade faced further defeats at the hands of Ukrainian forces, resulting in the loss of modern T-80 tanks and a reversion to using outdated T-55 tanks from the 1950s. This reflects broader challenges within the Russian military, which has struggled to maintain front-line strength amidst sustained conflict with Ukraine.

Dozens of Russian marines were reportedly killed by a Ukrainian strike during an awards ceremony in Donetsk Oblast. The Ukrainian army's strategic communications unit confirmed the strike and stated that the casualty numbers were reported by Russian propagandists. The attack allegedly occurred while members of Russia's 810th Marine Brigade were attending the ceremony, which featured entertainment by Russian actress Polina Menshikh. The Ukrainian military claims that the strike was in retaliation for a previous missile attack on Ukraine's 128th Mountain Assault Brigade. An investigation into the incident is ongoing.
