Description: Official Release - February 23, 2024. NEW RELEASE! And there will be springThe set includes:--- 1 FDC - Cancellation postmark First Day Kyiv 01001 The postal block is dedicated to the anniversary - 2 years of Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine and 10 years of war. Since 2014, our state has been waging a war for the preservation of independence, its own identity, the right to free choice and territorial integrity. In February 2014, the enemy occupied Crimea and some areas of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of our country. Before the full-scale invasion, hostilities took place in the east of our country, and from February 24, 2022, the terrorist country set itself the goal of occupying and conquering all of Ukraine. But despite the enemy's superiority in manpower and weapons, Ukrainians, paying an extremely high price for the future, choose their Victory. "And there will be spring!" is a stamp issue with the most iconic wartime photographs honoring the heroic resistance of Ukrainians to the Russian aggressor that has been going on for 10 years already. Each stamp is a separate photo. Stamp "Seizure of the Belbek Airport. Sevastopol, 2014" is a commemorative photograph of the war launched by Russia against Ukraine in 2014 with the occupation of Crimea. The photo capturing the episode of the seizure of the Belbek airport in Sevastopol was taken by the Polish photographer Kuba Kaminsky/PAP, who miraculously managed to hide the image from the Russian invaders, so that the whole world could see it. Stamp "Love Can't Be Stopped! Kharkiv, 2022" by Sergey Bobok/AFP immortalizes a fragile moment of love: volunteer medics at a wedding photo shoot in the courtyard of a building destroyed by Russian missiles in Kharkiv in the spring of 2022. Stamp "Light Will Win! Azovstal. Mariupol, 2022" features a warrior in the sunshine at Azovstal, a legendary self-portrait taken by a defender with the call sign "Orest", Dmytro Kozatski in May 2022 during the heroic defense of the Mariupol "fortress". Stamp "Hands of an Infantryman. Bakhmut, 2023" features a photo of an infantryman of the 28th Brigade with the call sign "Snowball", taken by Maxim Dondyuk a few hundred meters from enemy trenches on the outskirts of Bakhmut in March 2023. The photos reproduced on the postage stamps have won prestigious awards: "Seizure of the Belbek Airport" won first place in the Grand Press Photo 2014 competition; "Light Will Win!" and "Love Can't Be Stopped!" were included in The Guardian list of the best photos of 2022; "Hands of an Infantryman" was included in the selection of the best photos of 2023 by Time magazine.
