History
The UBCh originated as a group to defend the Bolivarian Revolution and support PSUV through electoral processes in Venezuela.[1]

These groups of guarimberos, fascists and violent [people], and today now other sectors of the country’s population as well have gone out on the streets, I call on the UBCh, on the communal councils, on communities, on colectivos: flame that is lit, flame that is extinguished.
President Nicolas Maduro [2]
During the 2014 Venezuelan protests, the Venezuelan government called on the UBCh to counter those protesting against the Venezuelan government.[2] On 16 February, Nicolas Maduro confirmed that President of the National Assembly, Diosdado Cabello, was to oversee the deployment of PSUV throughout the country for "peace efforts" during the protests.[3] Later that day, governor of Carabobo state, Francisco Ameliach, stated on Twitter, "UBCH, get ready for the fulminating counter-attack. Diosdado will give the order #Respect,Gringos&Fascists".[4] Days later in the capital city of Carabobo state, Valencia, armed individuals on motorcycles appeared at a protest opening fire on protesters, with one protesters, Génesis Carmona, being shot in the head and died one day later.[4] On 5 March, President Maduro also called on multiple government supporting groups himself, with such groups including the UBCh and colectivos, which he ordered to make sure protests were "extinguished".[2]
