SYflag

What ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ means

Stands for Syria and Syrian people. The national flag is now green, white and black bands with three red stars, a flag first used at independence and carried by the opposition in the civil war. It became official after the Assad government fell, replacing the red, white and black flag with two green stars.

Syrians at home and abroad use it for national identity, family news, and the hope of rebuilding. It also tags food posts and memories of Damascus and Aleppo.

Devices may show either design, and many Syrians care a lot about which one appears.
