The emblem of Local Council. Har Adar has not been formally
adopted. Israeli municipalities in areas occupied since 1967
cannot register their emblems. The reason is that those areas are
not legally part of Israel and according to international law
they are governed by decrees of the military commander of the
areas. Many Israeli laws are in force in those municipalities
when adopted there by the military commander, but the Symbols/Emblems Protection Act of 1974
is not one of them.

The Radar Hill (named after a Radar of the RAF that was there
during WWII) was a battlefield during the Independence war. In
this settlement there is a memorial to "Har'el
Regiment" , which is the main element in the emblem. Photo
