5 Iyyar certainly can fall out on Shabbat, and as it happens it doe so in
exactly the same years when there is Shushan Purim Meshulash:

Adar has 29 days and Nisan 30, so from 15 Adar to 5 Iyyar is 29 + 30 - 10 =
49 days or exactly 7 weeks.
In other words, Shushan Purim and Yom Ha`Atzmaut (when not postponed or
advanced) are always on the same day of the week.

This last happened nine years ago in 5768 and will happen again in 5781
