| Reverse description | The main image of the back of the note is a stylized composition that symbolizes the physical and mental suffering of Ukrainians under occupation – hands tied behind a person’s back, against the background of crumpled cloth, behind which a figure with a bullet wound in the form of a poppy is suggested (designed by Serhii Mishakin); on both sides of the figure are stylized wings made from candle flames; above, against the backdrop of the outlines of destroyed houses is a crown of thorns that stands for martyrdom; to the right of the crown is a security feature – a colored composition consisting of a guilder rose and an anti-tank hedgehog. |

| Obverse lettering | 24 лютого 2022 року повномасштабним
вторгненням російської армії розпочався новий етап збройної агресії
проти України.
Народна війна за незалежність і суверенітет України триває з 2014
року Це також війна за цивілізаційний вибір: Україна відстоює свою
приналежність до європейської цивілізації і водночас - ті засадничі
цінності, права і свободи, що лежать в основі Західного світу.
On 24 February 2022, a new stage of armed aggression against
Ukraine began with a full-scale invasion of Ukraine by the russian
army. The people`s war for the independence and sovereignty of
Ukraine has been going on since 2014. This is also a war for a
civilizational choice: Ukraine is defending its place in European
civilization, and at the same time fighting for the fundamental
values, rights and freedoms that underpin the Western world.
