About the Kuwait flag emoji
The Kuwait flag emoji ๐ฐ๐ผ shows green, white and red horizontal bands with a black trapezium at the hoist. Under the hood, KW is the regional indicator symbols K W; the Kuwait flag appears whenever K and W are displayed together. Windows has no flag artwork, so there KW appears as the letters K W. Kuwait (KW) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); KW renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy KW from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Kuwait with the other Middle East flags, such as Oman, listed beside Kuwait.
