Original Note:
The 729 code does indeed indicate Israel, however GS1 states "company prefixes are based on the GS1 prefixes below. Note that since GS1 member companies can manufacture products anywhere in the world, GS1 prefixes do not identify the country of origin for a given product." https://www.boomlive.in/world/fake-news-barcode-prefix-729-871-products-made-in-israel-benjamin-netanyahu-13410
