The 24th Separate Guards Special Forces Brigade (24-й отдельной бригады специального назначения) is a special forces (spetsnaz) brigade of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

It had its origins in a separate company of special designation of the Main Intelligence Directorate (the GRU). On October 1, 1961, in accordance with the directive of the General Staff of the USSR Armed Forces No. OSH/2/347491 dated August 26, 1961, the 806th independent Company of Special Designation (or in Western terms Special Forces) (Military Unit 64656) numbering 117 people was formed in the Transbaikal Military District with direct subordination to the district headquarters.

The 24th Spetsnaz Brigade was established on 1 November 1977 at Nara-Byrka (Yasnaya), Chita Oblast, in the Transbaikal Military District at a former R-16 (SS-7) Strategic Rocket Forces support site, by expanding the previous company.[1] Initially, only a command team and the 1st Battalion were deployed. In 1980, the 2nd battalion was deployed.[2]

In 1988, the brigade was transferred to Kykhta, Buryatia, in 2002, to Sosnovyy-Bor, Buryatskaya and in 2012 to Novosibirsk.[3]
