Description

From this webpage:

The Municipality of Gaza is in the Gaza Strip. It is governed in civil matters by the Palestinian Authority. The flag consists of a plain field with the municipal shield in the center. The shield is red-green diagonal checks with a stylized Phoenix bird in the center. The bird represents the multiple rebirths of Gaza on the same site over the past 5,000 years.

The flag has no defined background color. This example has a white field. Others exist with light blue and light yellow backgrounds. Most are approximately 1 m × 1.5 m although this example is approximately A4 size.

The white-field flag of the "Al-Shifa Hospital" in Gaza City in the Gaza Strip; c. Dec. 2015. This hospital became popularly visible in early November 2023 when the Israeli military surrounded it in search of allegedly hidden Hamas militants. In early November 2023 it is unknown whether or not this Gaza hospital has any current administrative relationship with the "Palestine Ministry of Health" located in Ramallah, Palestine.
