Israel hit 1 million tourist entries for 2022 on July 10.
Israel reopened its borders to fully vaccinated foreigners in January after shutting them out for most of the Covid-19 pandemic.
In March, it allowed unvaccinated tourists to enter, and in May it ended all Covid testing for arriving passengers.
