Ukraine · 2022 · W

This stamp depicts a Ukrainian soldier making a defiant gesture towards the Russian warship Moskva. The design became a powerful symbol of Ukrainian resistance during the 2022 Russian invasion. The phrase 'Russian warship, go f*** yourself!' is written in Ukrainian at the bottom.

Issued during the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, this stamp commemorates the famous response of Ukrainian soldiers on Snake Island to the Russian warship Moskva, which was later sunk.
