Original Note:
The OP implies that Israel is mentioned as a county in Quran. However, the term “Israel” in Quran refers to Jacob, he’s know as Prophet Yaqub in Islam. The descendants of Jacob are referred as Bani Israel (Children of Israel). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_in_Islam#:~:text=Jacob%2C%20son%20of%20Isaac%2C%20son,Abraham%2C%20Ishmael%2C%20and%20Isaac.&text=Jacob%20is%20mentioned%20sixteen%20times%20in%20the%20Quran. https://aboutislam.net/reading-islam/understanding-islam/the-children-of-israel-as-mentioned-in-the-quran/
