Today we celebrate the Crimean Tatar Flag Day 

The Tarak-Tamga is the ancestral emblem of Giray dynasty, the only rulers of the Crimean Khanate since the 15th century, and a symbol of #CrimeanTatar people, while the blue color has a deep meaning and history among Turkic peoples.
This flag was used as the national flag since the time of the Crimean Democratic Republic in 1917, but during the Soviet occupation, it was banned.
After the return from deportation in 1991, the Second Kurultai of the Crimean Tatar people reinstated the flag as the national symbol.
Since 2014, this flag has been a symbol of resistance to occupation. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, it has been proudly worn on the chevrons of soldiers fighting for Ukraine's independence and the future deoccupation of #Crimea
