Roughly 45% of Jews in Israel are Mizrahi, with no ties to Europe, nor do they have admixture containing European DNA. Mizrahi Jews—writ large—never left the Middle East. https://www.britannica.com/topic/Oriental-Jews https://theconversation.com/israels-mosaic-of-jewish-ethnic-groups-is-key-to-understanding-the-country-217893 Ashkenazi Jews from the European diaspora also have DNA tracing back to the ancient Israelites. https://www.jns.org/myth-vs-fact-are-todays-jews-the-descendants-of-ancient-israelites/ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_studies_of_Jews
