I'm pretty new to react and am having some issues with web pack. All I'm trying to do is import a SVG file into my react project. I'm lost as to what is causing this as it doesn't give me much info about it. I would be grateful if anyone knows what's going on, thank you in advance lol.
Error code in console:
ERROR in ./src/img/flag/united-kingdom.svg
Module build failed: TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "from" argument must be of type string. Received undefined

Import code (literally all that references it):
import { ReactComponent as UKFlag } from '../img/flag/united-kingdom.svg'
