About the Israel flag emoji
The Israel flag emoji 🇮🇱 shows a blue Star of David between two blue horizontal stripes on white. Under the hood, IL is the regional indicator symbols I L; the Israel flag appears whenever I and L are displayed together. Windows has no flag artwork, so there IL appears as the letters I L. Israel (IL) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); IL renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy IL from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Israel with the other Middle East flags, such as Oman, listed beside Israel.
