What can I, as a divorced dad living abroad, do to see my child in Israel,when his mum,my 'ex', sabotages my attempts to meet him, even when I fly over by arrangement,and won't let me take him out, hovering over us all the time?My divorce agreement does not cover visitation in Israel.

You can file for visitation rights at the family court in Israel. The court will appoint a professional to make recommendations and a report concerning visitation,to help it rule on the case.

As you live abroad the special assistance units attached to the court can be used, and the court may ask its professionals to set times and arrangements for visitation,even during any trip you make to Israel to co-incide with court proceedings,until it rules on the matter itself. Your 'ex' can be explicitly ordered to allow you to meet your son outside the home and can face proceedings for contempt of court if she fails to honour any decision.
