The Ukrainian Volunteer Army (Ukrainian: Українська добровольча армія, УДА, romanized: Ukrayinsʹka dobrovolʹcha armiya, UDA) is a volunteer military formation established in December 2015 by Dmytro Yarosh after his departure from Right Sector. On October 14, 2018, Yarosh announced that all combat units were leaving the front line and the main focus of the Volunteer Army would be the construction of territorial defense units.
As of 2022, the units are part of the Ukrainian Territorial Defense Forces, and they also maintain partisan units behind the enemy lines.
