Red swastika

 




Not entirely confirmed, tbh, these pieces from the outer fringes of Wikipedia show Communist swastikas!

The flag above was (supposedly) used by the Tuvan People´s Republic 1921-26, while the badges below are from Kalmyk Red Army formations in 1919. 

Tuva and Kalmykia have "Tibetan Buddhist" populations, the swastika being a sacred symbol in Buddhism.
