For your attention - a patriotic magnet
These stamps were issued in Ukraine on April 12, 2022.
The stamps are dedicated to the well-known event, when a Russian ship approached Zmeiny Island (Black Sea, Ukraine) and offered Ukrainian border guards to surrender.
To this ultimatum, the Ukrainian soldiers suggested that the Russian warship go in a certain direction.
The phrase "Russian warship, go ... " was uttered by Roman Gribov, a border guard from Snake Island. Gribov himself was captured, then he was released on exchange.
In the future, the phrase became a symbol of the resistance of the Ukrainian people.
The russian ship "Moskva" pictured on this stamp was destroyed on the next day after this stamp was released !!!
