🇮🇱 💸 Budget blowout: Israel's $48 bln war bill dependent on bond markets
Tel Aviv needs to borrow extensively to support its gravest armed engagement in decades, because of the demands of its present financial situation. With a whopping $300 billion debt stock to manage, the conflict has doubled the cost of insuring its sovereign bonds against default.
The escalating military operations by the IDF in Gaza cast a spotlight on the country’s deepening economic challenges, as the conflict enters its seventh week. Amidst this continuing turmoil, a team of Israeli technocrats known as the 'government’s CFO' are responsible for navigating the emerging economic complexities.
Leader Capital Markets, a top financial advisory firm in Israel, reports that the war costs the economy around $270 million every day. It estimates a total fiscal impact of $48 bln for 2023-24. Israel bears two-thirds of these costs, and the United States of America covers the remaining one-third.

🇳🇱🇮🇱 Netherlands to continue supplying F-35 parts to Israel despite war crimes risks
Dutch ministers said in a letter to parliament that the Netherlands will continue to supply spare parts to Israel because there is no evidence that Israel's F-35s are involved in violations of humanitarian law, adding that the transit of the parts from the United States is necessary because Israel is also threatened by Iran, among others.
