Whats the meaning of the Z symbol?

Okay. I'll be serious. For a second.

Messages featuring the letter "Z" have spread widely across social media since Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Billboards have recently popped up in Russian cities featuring the letter. Stickers have appeared on cars and commercial vehicles. Russia's state-owned RT is selling T-shirts on its website in apparent support of the ongoing conflict.


But the origins of the symbol remain a mystery.
