(31,478 posts)2. The Moskva Warship Stamp
The postal service printed a million warship stamps. Seven hundred thousand are on sale across Ukraine, Smelyansky said, with 200,000 reserved for territories currently occupied by Russian troops, including Crimea. Another 100,000 will be sold online from Thursday, he said, including to buyers abroad.
For now, the only way to get hold of a sheet is to join the back of the Kyiv queue. On Tuesday it was several thousand people long. Smeylansky emerged from his office mid-morning and reassured those waiting outside that there were enough to go around 70,000 on sale that day, limited to 16 per person.
