Last year in late November, strong winds twice damaged the country's largest flag. The first time the wind tore the flag of Ukraine on November 27. Then the Ukrainian city administration noted that the flag was lowered on the eve of deteriorating weather conditions, but strong wind gusts still damaged the cloth. After, on November 30, the authorities reported that the wind tore the cloth for the second time in a week.

The construction of the flagpole is the largest in Ukraine. Its height is almost 90 meters, weight - 32 tons. The size of the flag cloth is 16 × 24 meters.
