IATA, the world airline trade association, has an interactive chart you can click through to see the current COVID-19 travel restrictions that each country has in place. I've definitely bookmarked it.
It appears IATA does not have current restriction details for Syria, Yemen, Libya or Niger - and they have a blank for the Palestinian territory (though since the bombing of the Yasser Arafat International Airport control tower in 2000 there hasn't been a commercial airport in there).
While I had been under the impression that every country in the world had imposed COVID-related travel restrictions of some kind, IATA suggests that there are no current coronavirus restrictions at all for entering Mexico or Serbia. (Some countries like Belarus permit unrestricted transit and ask arriving passengers to quarantine, but there aren't additional limits on entry.)
This will be a useful resource as countries begin to open. Although I have to chuckle at the backflips everyone goes through not to offend China. Taiwan isn't listed as a country. Indeed, despite fewer than 450 confirmed cases and just 7 deaths in a population of over 20 million they are listed as "Chinese Taipei."
