Israel's war costs reach 420b shekels
Israel estimates that the ongoing war since October 2023 has cost approximately $135 billion, with projections suggesting it will exceed half a trillion shekels in the coming years. This comes amid a decline in ammunition reserves and a weakened stockpile compared to the increasing military demands. Additionally, this expenditure has raised Israel's national debt by about 400 billion shekels, with security budgets and funding deficits continuing to grow, despite the lack of guarantees that increased military spending will ensure security. The war is expected to last at least three months, with ammunition supplies being depleted faster than initially anticipated.
