propaganda leaflet
Dropped political paper
A propaganda leaflet is a single sheet of paper distributed to spread a political message, typically dropped from aircraft over enemy territory during wartime or handed out during protests and campaigns.
The format emphasizes brevity and visual impact—designed to be read quickly and discarded or passed along: Allied planes dropped propaganda leaflets urging German soldiers to surrender.
