The Russian Drone-Dropped Surrender Leaflet is a two-sided Russian-language psychological operations item associated with delivery over Ukrainian positions during the Russia–Ukraine conflict. One side provides surrender instructions and a radio frequency, while the reverse uses political and ideological arguments intended to persuade Ukrainian servicemen to leave the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

As a piece of drone-delivered propaganda material, it reflects communication methods used during modern military operations. The sheet also functions as a battlefield psychological operations print and a modern conflict surrender appeal, combining practical instructions with polemical messaging. The photographed example shows edge wear, creasing, staining, and handling marks. The translation below reproduces the meaning of the printed text; its political allegations are presented as statements appearing on the leaflet, not as independently established facts.

WHAT ARE YOU FIGHTING FOR?!

FOR ZELENSKY?

Who stole the Western aid allocated by the United States of America, while the people of Ukraine will be held responsible and will have to repay it.

FOR THE LAND?!

Perhaps we will open your eyes: all subsoil resources no longer belong to Ukraine. Whether the United States or the EU becomes their official owner is not so important. All agricultural land has long passed into foreign ownership, and even the forests in the Carpathians have practically all been divided among Ukraine’s new masters.

FOR THE FAITH YOU HAVE LOST?

For centuries, the Orthodox faith was strong in Ukraine, but today you are forbidden to attend churches and temples, while SBU punishers beat clergy in their prisons. Meanwhile, Greek Catholics feel increasingly at ease, as do the Uniates, who for centuries dreamed of converting Orthodox Ukrainians to their faith.

FOR FREEDOM?

Today everything human is forbidden to you: you sit at home and cannot go outside because the “man-catchers” from the TCC will seize you; you cannot speak your native language; you have no right to leave this concentration camp; and you cannot renounce your citizenship. Even a galley slave would not envy your fate.

FOR A FUTURE IN THE EU AND NATO?!

No one is waiting for Ukraine in Western alliances. Today this is already being stated publicly. It was all a “carrot for the Ukrainian donkey,” which followed it like a pack animal while moving farther away from Russia. In the end, its Western masters drove this donkey to exhaustion and abandoned it, sick and hungry, to die in a ditch, from which only Russia can pull it out.

TODAY YOU ARE FIGHTING ONLY FOR:

Zelensky, described here as a drug addict whose term has expired, who betrayed not only his voters but even the memory of his grandfather, a hero of the Great Patriotic War;

Bandera and the Banderites, who killed not only Poles but also thousands of ordinary Ukrainians during the Great Patriotic War and after it ended.

DO YOU WANT TO PRESERVE YOUR NATION? YOUR CULTURE?
YOUR LANGUAGE? YOUR HOMELAND? FLEE THE ARMED FORCES OF UKRAINE!

Are blocking detachments preventing you from surrendering? Then perhaps it is time to solve all problems at once and, together with your comrades, stop tolerating what the leaflet calls the genocide of the Ukrainian people and overthrow the deranged “Kvartal 95” that seized power in your country?
