why is the wrong currency used to withdraw funds to my bank account?

I cannot change the currency when attempting to transfer funds to my bank account. It's using the wrong currency with a very bad exchange rate.

I am trying to transfer USD, the bank account is in USD, why is it forcing me to transfer to ILS?

 

Thank you in advance!

Withdrawals to bank accounts are always in the local currency of the account OR the opening currency of the paypal account if that currency is not supported.

Withdrawals to bank accounts in Israel can only be done in ILS.
