I don't know about fees, but the value of the currency varies based on the dollar. For instance, the British pound is sometimes $1.63, other times like $1.85. It can change daily during your visit. Like when you are home, the store/restaurant may post the purchase on a different day than when you were there, and the credit company will charge you that rate. It is disconcerting to get home and notice the difference, which is usually higher. Check with your card to see if there is a conversion charge, also. I take money orders written in that country's currency, which can be bought from AAA.

Do I need an international credit card when travelling abroad?

Most major credit cards will work overseas.

Contact your card company to find out what kinds of fees they'll charge for international transactions, or to see if they limit use in any of the countries you're thinking of travelling to.

There may be a restriction on funds transfer in other countries or other currencies. Some countries have currency controls which means credit cards issued in those countries may not be used to pay for transactions outside of the country. Even if they do allow transactions outside the country where the card was issued, they almost certainly will not allow transactions that take place in Israel.
