Description: "The illegally constructed Crimean Bridge currently connects thetemporarily occupied Ukrainian Crimea Peninsula with Russia. Since thefull-scale war initiated by Russia on February 24, 2022, the bridge has beenactively used by the occupiers to reinforce their army. The explosion thatoccurred on October 8, 2022, on the Crimean Bridge and resulted in partialdestruction shattered the myth of its incredible strength and security. Theimagination of Ukrainian artist Yuriy Shapoval about the inevitable fate of thebridge across the Kerch Strait materialized in a sketch for a postage stamptitled 'Crimean Bridge in Ruins!'. In addition to the main storyline, the stampcontains several interesting details and hints: a cigarette butt in the hand ofthe heroine as a symbol that the occupiers often suffer from smoking inprohibited areas, an enemy car flying into the abyss, losing their lootedbelongings, including even a washing machine, a 'coincidental' Bayraktar droneflying over the bridge, a destroyed enemy tank that was being transported bythe occupiers as part of their convoy to the front."
