    State of Israel, Medinat Yisra'el, Daulat Isra'il

Flag adopted 28th October 1948 (25 Tishrei 5709), published 12th November 1948

National Flag
Israel became independent on 14th May 1948 according to the United Nations resolution of 29th November 1947. [Previously] the area which is nowadays Israel was part of the British Mandate on Palestine-Eretz Israel and therefore [Israel] couldn't have an [internationally recognized] official flag. The current Israeli flag is based on the Zionist movement flag —now about 100 years old— which represented the Jewish population in the Mandate era but had no official standing.

Flag and Coat-of-Arms Adoption Dates
Under the national flag (top of this page) we have "Flag adopted 12th November 1948, coat-of-arms adopted 11th November 1949". However, the (excellent) Ministry of Foreign Affairs' webpage about the flag and arms claims that the adoption dates are 28 October 1948 (25 Tishrei 5709) and 10th February 1949 (11 Shevat 5709). Why that difference?

Santiago Dotor, 10 October 2001

This is easy to understand looking at the proclamation. The proclamation was signed on 28 October 1948 but was published in the official gazette on 12 November 1948. According to law, the publishing date is the crucial one, but I guess that in this subject, they chose the signing date. The 1949 Flag and Emblem Law also uses 28th October 1948. Concerning the emblem, it was signed on 10th Febuary 1949 but published also later.
