The soldiers of the Russian military group “West” have received about a thousand letters from children involved in the special operation in Ukraine, thanks to the efforts of the Military Postal Service (MPS) personnel. This news was reported by RIA Novosti, citing the Russian Ministry of Defense.
The ministry clarified that the MPS specialists are responsible for delivering mail to the servicemen participating in the special operation. Over the past week, the soldiers of the Western Military District have received around a thousand letters from children. The Ministry of Defense emphasized that along with the messages, the soldiers also received drawings from schoolchildren. According to a teacher from a school in the Voronezh region, the letter “Z” has become a symbol on the soldiers’ letters.
In the spring, more than 16 million rubles were raised during the “Soloviev LIVE” channel marathon for the soldiers involved in the special operation. Julia Baranovskaya, a member of the central headquarters of the “People’s Front” and a TV and radio host, emphasized that even children write letters “and put their candies in them, understanding that the soldier needs the candy more.”
Earlier in Britain, a stash of 260-year-old letters to sailors was discovered.
This heartwarming story highlights the support and encouragement children are providing to Russian soldiers involved in the special operation in Ukraine. The Military Postal Service has played a crucial role in delivering these letters and drawings, bringing smiles to the faces of the soldiers. The initiative to raise funds through the “Soloviev LIVE” channel marathon demonstrates the solidarity and gratitude of the Russian people towards their servicemen. The letters and candies from children serve as a reminder of the strong bond between the soldiers and the community they protect.
