    Looks like it's the Israeli flag mixed with the symbol for the Stern Gang, aka the Lehi.

    The Lehi were a militant, fascist Zionist group. Among other things, they committed the Deir Yassin massacre and are overall one of the more sick Zionist groups to exist. They're thought of highly in Israel to this day. The Israelis I know call the Lehi freedom fighters, instead of what they were, which were fascist murderers who targeted children.

    I'm pretty sure this symbol is used in the emoji rather than the typical Israeli flag because it be really, really bad to have an emoji of a burning star of david.
