Postage set «You will do as the Witch says, enemy»

On April 22, 2022, almost two months after the start of Russia's large-scale aggression against Ukraine, the poet Lyudmyla Horova's poem “Vrazhe” was published online, written as a witch's spell against the enemy. The words quickly went viral. They were read aloud, set to music, and translated into other languages. “You'll be shocked... For Kremenchuk, for Bucha, for Irpin, for Mykolaiv, for Kharkiv, for Mariupol... For Ukraine,” "This is not a song, but a spell and a curse for the orcs, let it all come true a thousand times, these are the words of every woman in Ukraine. Glory to Ukraine, death to the enemies,“ ”This is women's revenge on all looters, rapists, murderers: people, children, parents, women and animals," - these comments were left under the song's YouTube video, which has gained 1 million views in over a month. The postal issue “It will be as the Witch says” is illustrated by Ukrainian artist Kateryna Shtanko, whose stamp sheet “Flowers of Ukraine” (2000) has won the favor of philatelists around the world, won a bronze medal at the 7th World Stamp Cup (France) and has become a real business card of Ukrainian philately.

The postage set includes a stamps sheet “You will do as the Witch says, enemy”, сover “First Day” and 2 cards.
