Bender Uprising

1919 uprising in the Kingdom of Romania

The Bender Uprising was organized by local Bolshevik groups in Bender/Tighina on 27 May 1919, as a protest of the local Russian population against the annexation of Bessarabia by the Kingdom of Romania in December 1918. Red Guards from local factories were organized under the command of Grigoriy Borisov, and were supported by 150 troops of the 3rd Brigade of the 5th Division of the 3rd Ukrainian Soviet Army.
