Israel's military expenses increased from 1.8 to 4.7 billion dollars per month
Israel's military spending amounted to $1.8 billion per month until October 7, 2023, while at the end of last year this figure reached $4.7 billion. At the moment, more than 131 million dollars are spent per day. It was also revealed how much was spent on killing the leader of Israel's Hezbollah and his cousin.
By October 7, 2023, Israel's military spending was $1.8 billion a month, and by the end of last year, it was about $4.7 billion, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute.
According to the institute, Israel spent $27.5 billion last year to finance its military.
An army spokesman said TsAXAL had spent 400 million shekels (more than $105.4 million) on a single day's combat until recently, but as the war expanded north into Lebanon, costs had risen to more than half a billion shekels (more than $131 million) a day. And these costs may increase in the near future.
Including, since the beginning of September, especially after the expansion of the war on the northern front and the beginning of the ground operation in southern Lebanon on October 1, Israel's military expenses have increased by about 6.8 billion dollars.
According to Ynet, 6.8 million dollars were spent to kill only Hezbollah leader Nasrullah (about 10 seconds and 80 tons of bombs), and 5.4 million dollars were spent on the attack in which his cousin Safi al-Din was allegedly killed.
It is noted that it will be difficult for Israel's economy to withstand a long war on the northern and southern fronts. According to sources, the government should take steps to increase the military budget for next year.
