The Israel police flag is the police emblem centered on a blue background, taking a third of its height. The police flag is used on police boats. Source: author's observation.

The police boats are small vessels (speed-boats) and the flag is on their mast. No other flag hoisted.

The rank flag for the General Inspector of Israel Police is quite similar to the Minister of Defence but with the police emblem on the lower fly. Here are scans of the General Inspector's flag and a detail of the emblem.

The Police General Inspector flag, as all other Israeli flags, has a single shade of blue. I saw the flag and indeed it had the same shade of blue throughout. The colour used in actual practice is somewhere between the two shades of blue in a browser-safe palette, and darker than in the above image.

One more police flag that I know about (but lack the emblem to draw it) is the Border Guard flag: green with the police emblem on top hoist and Border Guard emblem (a symbol of a tower with an inscription below it) on the lower fly. Source: author's observation.
