Dronefall Ukrainian Charity Stamp Sheet – Ukrposhta 2026

“Dronefall” is an official 2026 Ukrposhta charity stamp dedicated to the people protecting Ukraine’s skies from Russian drones.

Created together with the Come Back Alive Foundation, the issue supports the Dronefall project, launched in 2024 to help Ukrainian Defense Forces detect, intercept and destroy enemy UAVs. The striking artwork by Ukrainian street artist Volodymyr Manzhos (WaOne) transforms that mission into a symbolic scene: a bird-archer standing against a threatening swarm in the sky. 

Bold, symbolic and unmistakably contemporary, this stamp sheet captures an important chapter of Ukraine’s wartime history and makes a meaningful addition to a Ukrainian or military-history collection.

Story Behind the Stamp

The Dronefall project was launched by the Come Back Alive Foundation in 2024 to strengthen Ukraine’s ability to counter Russian reconnaissance and attack drones. The initiative supplies Ukrainian units with interceptor drones, vehicles, communications equipment, optics, electronic-warfare systems and other equipment required to defend the skies. By the time the stamp was issued in 2026, the project had helped prevent more than 32,000 enemy drones from reaching their targets. 

For the stamp, artist Volodymyr Manzhos, known as WaOne, chose symbolism rather than a literal battlefield scene. At the center is a fantastical bird-archer confronting swarms of airborne evil—an image representing those who protect Ukrainian cities and civilians from attacks from above. Ukrposhta describes the artwork as a tribute to Ukraine’s air-defense forces, interceptor crews, engineers and everyone involved in defending the country’s skies. 

The result is a postage stamp that documents not only a military reality, but also the creativity, resilience and determination of contemporary Ukraine.
