The flag itself belongs to the entirety of the Naval Infantry (re-formed as the Marine Corps as of May 2023) and can be seen here. The motto on the scroll reads "Always Faithful", to show a connection to other Marine services (such as the United States and Taiwan).

Flag variant with white reverse

This video (located by Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg) shows the flag hoisting in Urozhaine (at 0:16). The unit flag seems to be one-sided with a white reverse (still image).
