The division was disbanded in the early 1990s at the decision of the government of Ukraine.
Any references of this? From information given by Ministry of defense it hasn't been disbanded. Recently it was renamed a brigade like all the other Ukrainian divisions.

I was wondering that myself, why were the divisions all renamed "brigades"? Any ideas Ceriy? If you know this definitely be written mentions in Military of Ukraine to avoid confusion. Cheers, Bogdan22:00, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Реформування Збройних Сил сьогодні знаходиться на етапі 2002 року, його завершення в програмі до 2005 року. До кінця цього року сплановано завершення переходу Сухопутних військ на структуру корпус, бригада, батальйон. Тобто ми відмовилися від дивізійної ланки.http://www.mil.gov.ua/index.php?lang=ua&part=news&sub=read&id=1410
Thanks to I. N. Pavlov's Soviet-era divisional history, there is enough secondary information to create two separate articles for the Soviet period, with 24th Rifle Division (1918–1941) (a period that receives 89 pages in Pavlov's book) and 24th Motor Rifle Division incorporating the post-1942 history of the division. This seems the most logical option as the current Ukrainian unit continues to exist and has essentially abandoned the Soviet traditions with the recent decommunization – the 99th anniversary in 2017 was the last celebrated with reference to the Soviet traditions.
