Hi, Roger!

Looks like Scaeva selenitica
I would vote for
S. pyrastri (markings white, not yellow).

Thanks Juergen,
Pattern are indeed white on black. I have old papaer that list those species from Isarel
Scaeva albomaculata Macquart, 1842
Scaeva pyrastri (Linnaeus, 1758)
Scaeva selenitica (Meigen, 1822)
I'm not sure if this list is still valid today.
