The flag is
a white horizontal background with the logo in the middle, and what appears to
be a top blue horizontal stripe. It is not clear
when the logo was updated to
its current form, including the flag.

Regional Council of Shomeron (Samaria) is one of the six
Regional Councils in Judea and Samaria District, covering what is
known as 'C' areas of the West Bank. This Regional Council is the
local authority of the Jewish settlements in Jenin, Tulkarem and
most of Shkhem subdistricts and in its area (but not part of it)
are the independent local authorities of Local
Council of Qedumim, Local Council of
Immanu'el, Local Council of Alfe
Menashe, Local Council of Oranit,
Local Council of Elqana, Local Council of Qarne Shomeron and Municipality of Ariel. Est. 1979, pop.
15,000. The above image is based on the desk flag, so there could
be changes when used as a hoisted flag.

Phillips.

The emblem of Shomeron 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.

Established on 19 April 1979 and govern 34 settlements but some are going to
be evacuated according to PM Sharon's severing plan. English homepage at www.shomron.org.il.
I found some variants of the municipal flags at the official
website:
- Black emblem on yellow at sdf.shomron.org.il/1.jpg
- Black emblem on green at sdf.shomron.org.il/8.jpg
- Blue emblem on white at sdf.shomron.org.il/4.jpg.
I found also flag of Sha'are Tiqwa (Gates of Hope - one of the settlements) as
logo on white at sdf.shomron.org.il/20.jpg.
Emblem of Sha'are Tiqwa can be seen at sdf.shomron.org.il/2.jpg.
