"We Demand Unicode to Update the Syrian Flag Emoji
The Issue
We call on Unicode Consortium to update the Syrian flag emoji, as the current flag no longer represents the officially recognized version used internationally. The new flag has been updated on Wikipedia and Wikidata and is now used in diplomatic meetings and international events.
Keeping the outdated flag in digital systems creates an issue for millions of Syrian users worldwide, as emojis play a significant role in digital identity and cultural representation.
We urge Unicode to update the new flag to appear in all operating systems, just as other country flags have been updated before. Your support for this petition will help ensure Syria is accurately represented in the digital world
