This year's honor shield consists of:

1- The base of the shield has images of the eleven heroes of the operation.

2- Above the base appear the prison bonds, broken and destroyed.

3- Freedom is represented by the Chukar bird that prisoner Mahmoud Al-Arida saw after liberation.

4- The six lines up are smoothly drawn and correspond to the number of the liberated heroes.
