The Times of Israel: Bank of Israel governor warns Netanyahu against war budget hike without cuts elsewhere

Bank of Israel Governor Amir Yaron makes a final plea to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to maintain fiscal discipline ahead of a cabinet vote on a revised 2024 budget to incorporate enormous funding increases for the war with Hamas.

“There is no free lunch,” Yaron writes in a letter to Netanyahu that was seen by Reuters, stressing that markets are watching fiscal policymakers.
