Unicode Version 17.0
🏳
U+1F3F3 "🏳" Waving White Flag is a pictographic representation of a white flag attached to a pole, typically shown rippling in the wind. In its most common and historically recognized usage, it symbolizes a truce, surrender, or a plea for ceasefire in conflict situations. Within digital communication, it can also represent a general call for peace or a concession in a debate or game, though its meaning is heavily dependent on context. The character is part of the Flags category in Unicode and is distinct from the rainbow flag emoji, which is a separate sequence using this same white flag as a base.
