Regional Council Gderot is situated north to Ashdod-Gedera
road (road 41) and it is named after Gedera, a city in Judah tribe estate (Joshua 15,14 - see
also Local Council of Gadera) which
also gave it the lion in its emblem (Judah's symbol). Est. 1953,
pop. 3,250. In my visit there was no flag. I was told the logo on
several bedsheets is used on occasions. I drew the flag as green
(the emblem main colour) with emblem, but this
flag is only probable. The municipal emblem was published in
the official gazette (Rashumot, Yalkut ha-Pirsumim), YP
633, 13 November 1958.

I had one more visit but still no flag to report.
According to <www.gderot.com>,
the ides for the emblem of "Juda lion cub" came from
the position of the Regional Council in Juda tribe estate. See
also: Flags of the Tribes of Israel.
The Regional Council governs seven settlements (Gan HaDarom,
Kefar Aviv, Kefar Mordekhai, Meishar, Misgav Dov, Aseret and
Shdema).
