I wonder what an Israeli Jewish genetic average would look like. We could limit it to people with two parents born in Israel or even specifically born after 1948.
As of 2020, 78% of Israeli Jews are native-born

In 2010, over 4,000,000 Israeli Jews (70%) were sabras, with an even greater percentage of Israeli Jewish youths falling into this category.[4] In 2015, about 75% of Israel's Jewish population was native-born.[5][6] In 2020, this had further increased to 78%.[7]

Yes but do you have some data about the proportions of Ashkenazim, Sephardim, Mizrahim, etc.?

The majority of Israeli Jews are Mizrahi.[62] The exact proportion of Mizrahi and Sephardic Jewish populations in Israel is unknown (since it is not included in the census); some estimates place Jews of Mizrahi origin at up to 61% of the Israeli Jewish population,[63] with hundreds of thousands more having mixed Ashkenazi heritage due to cross-cultural intermarriage. About 44.9% percent of Israel's Jewish population identify as either Mizrahi or Sephardi, 44.2% identify as Ashkenazi, about 3% as Beta Israel and 7.9% as mixed or other.[64]

Jews from North Africa and Asia have come to be called "Mizrahi Jews".
