Israeli Economy Reels as Iranian Missiles Inflict Daily $200 Million Blow
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iran’s retaliatory missile attacks are costing the Israeli regime an estimated $200 million per day, with economic disruption and defense expenses mounting rapidly amid the ongoing war, according to Western and Israeli media reports.
The Zionist regime is facing financial strain as the conflict with Iran escalates, with daily costs reaching hundreds of millions of dollars, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing defense analysts.
The report attributes the highest share of this expenditure to the operation of Israel’s missile interception systems, which are struggling to counter continuous Iranian strikes.
According to expert assessments cited by WSJ, the cost of deploying missile defense systems alone could amount to as much as $200 million each day.
Meanwhile, the economic impact of the Iranian strikes is being felt across the Israeli-occupied cities.
Israeli newspaper Maariv acknowledged that in Tel Aviv, half of all shops have shut down due to the missile attacks.
The report described marketplaces in the city as “empty and silent,” reflecting widespread disruption in daily life.
Israeli aggression last Friday triggered a wave of powerful retaliatory responses from Iran.
