Description
Please update +towgs84 parameter for the Israel ITM grid (EPSG:2039).
The 7 parameter transformation is officially published at the Israel mapping service:
http://www.mapi.gov.il/AboutUs/NewsAndUpdates/Documents/IGD.pdf
These are the parameters from WGS to Israel grid so for +towgs84 I guess we need to change the sign of the parameters shown below:
X -24.0024 m
Y -17.1032 m
Z -17.8444 m
Rotation
RX -0.0000016003 rad= -0."33009
RY -0.0000089821 rad= -1."85269
RZ 0.0000080949 rad= 1."66969
Scale Factor
m =1.0000054248 =5.4248 PPM

This should be reported to the Proj4 bug tracker, because QGIS takes all CRS from there.
Proj4 only uses valid EPSG transformations, and EPSG only knows EPSG::1073 with 3 parameters.
http://www.epsg-registry.org/ notes:
Remarks: For more accurate transformation contact Survey of Israel.
So you will have to convince EPSG to make a Revision according to the official 7-parameters you found in the document, then Proj will adopt these, and QGIS will follow.

With QGIS 3.8 and the release of proj 6 library, any remaining projection definition related issues now should be filed with the proj project.
