Entry details
Holders of a Yemen passport need a visa obtained in advance when visiting Israel. The Yemen passport currently ranks #194 of 199 worldwide, with 35 destinations reachable visa-free or via visa on arrival / eTA.
Israel is middling in how freely it admits visitors, admitting 101 of the world's 198 other passports without a prior visa; its own passport ranks #50 with 144 open destinations. Both sit in Middle East, where regional agreements often shape entry rules. The relationship isn't symmetric: Yemen travellers get easier access here than Israel citizens get in return (entry restricted).
In the opposite direction, Israel citizens travelling to Yemen face: entry restricted.
