(May 7, 2025 / JNS) A massive Israeli flag, measuring almost 40 x 30 feet, was recently raised near the village of Ateret in the Binyamin region of Samaria, just north of Ramallah, the Binyamin Regional Council said on Tuesday.

The flag flies from a 98-foot-high pole built along the eastern landing path toward Tel Aviv’s Ben-Gurion International Airport and will be visible to passengers on incoming flights, according to the council.

A flag-raising ceremony was recently held in the presence of council officials, representatives of nearby villages and their residents, it said.
