Published in 1925–1926 at Łuniniec in Polesie Krasnoye Znamya was the only Russian-language paper of the Polish Socialist Party (PPS) in the interwar period. Its circulation fluctuated between 1500–2000 copies. Most of its articles were written by editor-in-chief and Sejm deputy Stanisław Wolicki. The paper ran into difficulties after launching a campaign of criticism against the local administration; nor could the championing unrealistically radical causes halt its rapid decline. When Wolicki became embroiled in a financial scandal, its fate was sealed.
