The Palestinian flag: black, white and green horizontal bands with a red triangle at the hoist. People use it to mean Palestine, Palestinians and Palestinian identity.
Palestinians and their diaspora use it for heritage, family, food and culture posts. Many others add it to names and posts to show solidarity, often with ๐, because a watermelon shares the flag's colors.
It looks like ๐ฏ๐ด Jordan's flag minus the white star, and like ๐ธ๐ฉ Sudan's flag with a green triangle instead of red.
