The arrival direction distribution of the highest-energy cosmic rays with respect to Galactic latitude has been analysed using both the Yakutsk and the available world data from extensive air shower arrays. A north-south asymmetry is indicated in the distribution observed with the Yakutsk array at 0954-3899/24/1/025/img2 in the outer Galaxy direction. A comparison with trajectory calculations for charged particles in the Galactic magnetic field indicates that the observed effect can be explained by a contribution from heavy nuclei originating in the Galactic disk to an extra-galactic isotropic primary flux. The mean-mass number of Galactic nuclei estimated using the model is 0954-3899/24/1/025/img3.
