equal parts - green, red with a white cross in the middle, and
black. The green colour symbolizes a young city, red with a white
cross symbolizes a location of town on Volyn, black symbolizes a
coal mining industry. The author is A.Grechylo."

show a plain flag (without the white cross).

The City council adopted a flag (with the cross) on August 12,
1997. It was my design and I have a copy of council's decision.
Unfortunately there are many errors in some web-sites.
