🇵🇸 is the letters P and S under the hood, which is why Windows can’t draw it. Copy it here.

A little context
What the palestine flag emoji means
🇵🇸 (flag: Palestinian Territories) is built from two regional indicator letters, P and S, that supporting devices draw as one flag. Windows, which ships no flag artwork, shows the letters instead. It is used for solidarity, news and identity, and since 2023 it is often accompanied by 🍉 — the watermelon shares the flag’s colours and became a stand-in where the flag itself was restricted or filtered. The American flag guide explains the same two-letter mechanics.
Flags are pairs of regional indicator letters; Windows has no flag images, so it shows the letters.
Why the watermelon?
Its red, green, black and white match the flag, and it is used where the flag emoji might be filtered or as a quieter signal.
