Font problem with hebrew characters in map labels

[rsimon]

We noticed the following issue with Hebrew labels: letters like "ה" and "פ" are being replaced with unknown symbols, thus rendering the map labels broken. I'm attaching a screenshot - see the labels marked in yellow.

Note that we are using a base map provided by MapTile (and mapLibre 5 with the mapbox-gl-rtl-text.js plugin). I realize that the problem may be with the font used in the map style, rather than with mapLibre as such. But I thought I'd report nonetheless, in case anyone has encountered the problem.

I also reported this to MapTiler, and they believe it might indeed be a font problem, but explicitly advised me to also post the problem here. If anyone can recommend a workaround, please let me know, since this is a critical issue for us. Thanks in advance!

Looks like a font issue.
Israel Hiking Map is using maplibre-gl-js and does not have any issue with displaying Hebrew text.
