How to scrub SVGs ?

[omn...@gmail.com]

The aim is to get rid of all SVGs - these are - I suppose the emojs - I tried with

<text.*?>.*?</text> 

from AI, without success.

The svg has

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 36 36"><path fill="#EDECEC" d="M20.……… … … 4z8z"/></svg>

But 

<svg*?>.*?</svg>

wont do it either.

Any idea how?
