Soviet partisan brigade (1941—1944) (), was the organisational form of the Soviet partisan units, the principal organisational form of the units operating on the territory of BSSR. On the BSSR territory, the first brigade-like unit («Pavlovskiy harrison») was created in January 1942 (Aktsyabrski dist. of Palesye province). The brigade comprised from several hundred to several thousand fighting persons in 3—7 detachments (rarely called battalions).
