While it is correct in that hostilities between Arab militias like the Arab Liberation Army and Holy War Army and Jewish militias like the Haganah and Palmach began before Israel declared Statehood, the remaining Arab nations on the list in the first answer declared war only after Israel declared Statehood. Therefore, by International Law, when their military vehicles crossed unwarranted into the territory accorded Israel by UN Resolution 181, it would be considered an invasion. The Seven Countries listed below were part of this invasion.
Egypt
Syria
Transjordan
Iraq
Yemen
Holy War Army
Arab Liberation Army
After WWII, the British mandate in Palestine ended and the State of Israel became a reality in 1948. The Arab countries surrounding the new state immediately declared war, vowing to push Israel into the sea. Israel had to fight for its existence.
They declared war on the fledgling Jewish State.
Israel was invaded. However, it is worth noting that during the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-49, some Israeli divisions crossed into sovereign Egyptian territory (east Sinai) after taking back the Negev Desert in the south of Mandatory Palestine from Egyptian forces. When Israel retreated from the Sinai, Egypt was willing to sign an armistice.
Egypt and other countries declared war against Israel, which was made mostly of Jews, so, YES, but Israel did not declare war on them.

There is no war in Israel (1) called the 50 year war, (2) that occurred in 1950, (3) that took 50 years, (4) had exactly four armies that invaded Israel. As a result, it is impossible to figure out what is being asked about.If you meant to ask "Which five countries invaded Israel in 1948 War?", the answer would be: Jordan, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, and Iraq.
I am not sure what you are asking. If you mean how did the forces from those Arab armies enter Israel, the answer is simple. All four of the countries that bordered Israel were a subset of the seven invading countries. The tanks literally just crossed the border. If you are asking about how Israel was unable to repel them immediately, the answer is also simple, Israel did not have the manpower to do that.
