Знамя Ермака Тимофеевича из Сибирского похода 1581-1585 годов, под которым был разгромлен хан Кучум и покорено Сибирское ханство. "Знамя четыреугольное, холстинное, мерою по древку 3 аршъ. 6 вершъ. шириною 2 аршъ. 9 вершъ. Середина голубая, на ней вшито изображеніе Архангела Михаила, составленое изъ разноцвѣтныхъ кусковъ холстины, предъ Архангеломъ Іисусъ Наввинъ, на колѣнахъ, иззуваетъ сапогъ; вдали градъ Іерихонъ. Койма изъ коричневаго холста, въ углахъ репья малиновыя, по бокамъ и по нижней коймѣ нарисованы плоды и цвѣты, на верхней коймѣ надпись: "Грозный воевода Архистратигъ Михаилъ". Кромѣ этой каймы была еще другая койма голубаго цвѣта, которая уцѣлѣла только на верхней и на нижней сторонахъ знамени. Древко крашеное красное; навершье желѣзное копье, на немъ осмиконечный прорѣзной крестъ". (Л. Яковлев. Русские старинные знамена. М., 1865.)

But the Ukraine Crisis Media Center's Tsekhanovska points out that communications are often down in zones most affected by the war, making this sort of cross-referencing a luxury many cannot afford. Such instructions could actually endanger people — citizens receive air strike warnings via smartphone alerts. Oh no. There’s a certain degree of myth-making around what exactly went on, so take everything that follows lightly. Telegram was originally launched as a side project by the Durov brothers, with Nikolai handling the coding and Pavel as CEO, while both were at VK. The company maintains that it cannot act against individual or group chats, which are “private amongst their participants,” but it will respond to requests in relation to sticker sets, channels and bots which are publicly available. During the invasion of Ukraine, Pavel Durov has wrestled with this issue a lot more prominently than he has before. Channels like Donbass Insider and Bellum Acta, as reported by Foreign Policy, started pumping out pro-Russian propaganda as the invasion began. So much so that the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council issued a statement labeling which accounts are Russian-backed. Ukrainian officials, in potential violation of the Geneva Convention, have shared imagery of dead and captured Russian soldiers on the platform. Right now the digital security needs of Russians and Ukrainians are very different, and they lead to very different caveats about how to mitigate the risks associated with using Telegram. For Ukrainians in Ukraine, whose physical safety is at risk because they are in a war zone, digital security is probably not their highest priority. They may value access to news and communication with their loved ones over making sure that all of their communications are encrypted in such a manner that they are indecipherable to Telegram, its employees, or governments with court orders.
