World's Largest Israeli Flag Raised in Haifa Port En Route to Guinness Record
A massive Israeli flag, measuring 17 by 10 meters and covering approximately 170 square meters, was hoisted on a 41-meter mast in Haifa's port on Tuesday morning. The flag, positioned near Palmer Gate, is described as the world's largest portable flag and is expected to be visible across the city, from Hadar to the Carmel Ridge.
Boaz Hayoun is behind the initiative. He first raised the flag shortly after October 7, 2023, with the aim of uniting the nation and boosting morale. The flag was previously removed from Kfar Shmaryahu following a protracted legal dispute.
Now relocated to Haifa, the flag begins a new chapter in its pursuit of official world record recognition. The article emphasizes the flag's prominent display as a symbol of Israeli strength, pride, and unity, stating that the blue and white colors continue to fly proudly from the center to the north of the country.
