BLUF: Before you ask such questions, you should read what "national" means. You should read what the convention says.
(COMMENT)
Here is what a "national" is and here is what the Convention says.
national A person enjoying the nationality of a given State. ‘[A]s stated in Article 1 of
the Hague Convention of 1930 on Certain Questions Relating to the Conflict of Nationality
Laws [ 179 L.N.T.S. 89 ], while it is for each State to determine under its own law who are
its nationals, such law must be recognised by other States only “in so far as it is consistent
with international conventions, international custom, and the principles of law generally
recognised with regard to nationality”’: I Oppenheim 852 and 853 . In certain municipal
systems, notably that of the United States, the term ‘nationals’ has been used to designate
persons enjoying narrower rights than those described as citizens: I Oppenheim 856
and 857 .

CHAPTER I
GENERAL PRINCIPLES Article 1
It is for each State to determine under its own law who are its nationals. This law shall be recognised by other States in so far as it is consistent with international conventions, international custom, and the principles of law generally recognised with regard to nationality.
Nothing has changed the law. Israel
(and every other country on the planet) can determine who is a national of their sovereign territory.
