Description of the flag

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has brought out some interesting flags. Many use the letter Z, which, in Russia, is mainly used in support of the war. From my observations of flags being used in support of Russia, I see 2 main ones.

The first Z flag looks very much like the one used by the Green Party (Strana zelen�ch) in the Czech Republic, only there was a lighter, less drab shade of green on that one:

The said flag seems to have been abandoned with the start of the war in Ukraine.
