Original Note:
The word Israel, that is mentioned in the Quran does not mean a country nor tribe, in fact its a second name of the prophet Jacob son of Isaac son of Abraham. Most of the mentions come associated with the word "بني", which means sons so "بني إسرائيل " means sons 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.
