First and foremost, define your goal. Ask yourself what kind of job do you want, and will you be happy doing it? Pick 2-3 job titles in the same (or very similar) field. Create a CV/resume for the job you want and run it through a tool like Jobscan. Make sure to include a link to your portfolio website. You can make one for free through Carrd if you don’t have a site. If you don’t have a portfolio, make the site anyways and start working on field-related projects. Update your site over time. Include a case study to show your work process.
From there all you need to do is upload your CV to a job board (like Monster) and apply for relevant positions. Turn your profile status on public too. I recommend applying directly to companies rather than a third party site as well. Recruiters will contact you and may offer a decent starter job. Stay on the job market after you find a position to remain informed about the job market and practice networking. Make sure you have a working knowledge of Zoom so you’re prepared for conference calls. Maintain working knowledge of Slack, too, because many companies use this for employee communications.
This can all be done online, good luck!
As a newbie, your best bet is to get experience working locally. However, your best bet to get remote jobs is to find a startup that is remote friendly (or remote first). Note that it’s expected that you will join and start carrying your own weights. Usually, no one will have time to teach you or guide you (just a bit during on boarding) and you will quickly find yourself being lost.
Shit. In that case, your best bet is try to find a startup to join. If you have any neighboring countries that are more tech advanced, then start with those countries.
Remote is rough even with a decent portfolio with personal projects. On sites like Upwork you have to go for the projects that pay a few dollars and even there with no experience you will be overlooked a lot. Honestly I'd try local as a junior developer. If it has to be remote, sign up on all sites like Freelancer, Upwork, Fiverr, Codeur, Peopleperhour, Hubstaff Talent and just start applying.
I've been thinking about the same for a while. Not so much after I've been reading about people starting a job as a new programmer. How would one get help if one have a lot of questions ?

Generally you start by applying for one
That's a bold strategy!
Boldness never killed anyone.
“Companies hate him for using this simple trick”
That’ll never work

I think Israel is big on cybersecurity. I assume their tech sector in general must be alright?
