Israel’s War on Iran Is Costing Hundreds of Millions of Dollars a Day

  • Israel and Iran are engaged in escalating military conflict marked by missile exchanges and airstrikes as of mid-2025 in the Middle East region.
  • The conflict follows a long history of indirect confrontation through proxies, with recent direct Israeli attacks on Iran occurring just before scheduled US-Iran talks.
  • Israel incurs daily costs of up to $200 million for missile interceptions using systems like Iron Dome, David's Sling, and Arrow 3, alongside expensive flight operations of F-35 jets and infrastructure damages.
  • Israeli economist Zvi Eckstein highlighted that the current war incurs much greater costs compared to previous conflicts with Gaza or Hezbollah, while Karnit Flug, who previously led the Bank of Israel, stated that the length of the conflict will critically influence economic stability.
  • The rising financial burden and damage to Israeli cities, including evacuations and refinery shutdowns, create pressure among Israeli officials to end the conflict swiftly despite ongoing strategic objectives.
