Description

Local Council Ma'ale Iron was established in 1996 as an answer to the lack of municipal organization for five small Arab villages with 10,000 inh. in Iron Valley (Wadi Ara) area in Hadera subdistrict. It is managed by the Ministry of the Interior.
The flag has been reported as white with emblem in unknown colour. The flag is only probable. The municipal emblem has not been published in the official gazette (Rashumot) and is thus unofficial. Publication process was initiated in 1999 but never completed. The Local Council uses this proposal as municipal emblem.

the Local Council govern the five Arab villages of Biada, Musmus, Zalfa, Mushreifa and Salem. Almost all population are Moslems.
