31 July 1963; 60 years ago (1963-07-31) (original version) 22 January 2008; 16 years ago (2008-01-22)[1] (current version)
Design
A horizontal tricolour of red, white, and black, charged with the takbīr in green Kufic script, centered on the white stripe.
The flag of Iraq (Arabic: علم العراق; Kurdish: ئاڵای عێراق) is the national flag of Iraq, includes the three equal horizontal red, white, and black stripes of the Arab Liberation flag, with the takbir written in green in the Kufic script in the centre.
This basic tricolour has been in use since its adoption on 31 July 1963, with several changes to the green symbols in the central white stripes; the most recent version adopted on 22 January 2008[1] bears the takbīr rendered in dark green and removes the three green stars present since 1963.[2] The flag was initially meant to be temporary, but the issue was ultimately set aside indefinitely.[3]
