The salary is taxable if remitted to Thailand, but only if remitted. You can read the Israel Thailand Double Tax Treaty here

If you are classified as a Thai tax resident (spending 180+ days in Thailand), the income you remit to Thailand may be taxable. However, under the Germany–Thailand Double Taxation Agreement (DTA), certain income types such as pensions, employment income, and business profits are covered to prevent double taxation. The rules depend on the income type: German state pensions usually remain taxable in Germany, while private pensions and savings may become taxable in Thailand if remitted.
