What ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡พ means

Libya's flag: red, black and green horizontal bands with a white crescent and star in the center. Sent to mean Libya, Libyans, or Libyan identity.

Libyans at home and abroad use it for national pride, football matches, Eid greetings and family news. It also tags travel content about Tripoli, Benghazi, or the Roman ruins at Leptis Magna.

This tricolor replaced an earlier flag that was plain green. Older photos and some memories still connect Libya with that green flag.
