🔎 Solution
This challenge provides us with an SVG file - a vector graphics format used to describe images using XML (eXtensible Markup Language).
Each graphical element (such as circles, rectangles, lines, or text) is defined using XML code.
Since SVG files are essentially plain text, they can be viewed and edited with any text editor.
In this case, I used the strings command to inspect the content.
Toward the end of the file, within the <text> tags, we can see that the flag has been split into multiple fragments.

By piecing them together, we reconstruct the full flag.
