Original Note:
DNA tests are not banned in Israel. The Genetic Information Law was put into place to protect privacy, and prevent the misuse of genetic data. They still allow testing for medical, and research purposes. Rabbinical courts have also used DNA testing for verifying Jewish lineage https://kamanlaw.com/are-dna-tests-illegal-in-israel/
