War bonds are a type of security issued by a government to support the economy. In effect, it borrows money from its citizens for a period of war, guaranteeing the return of these funds in the future.
The purpose of these bonds is to support the defense capability and functioning of the country in conditions of hostilities.

War bonds were issued, in particular, during the First and Second World Wars.
