Israel privately recruited for the war against the Palestinian Islamist Hamas movement about six billion dollars in loans from foreign investors. About it reports Financial Times (FT) newspaper.
As the publication learned, we are talking about three new issues of bonds worth $5.1 billion and six additional issues of existing bonds denominated in dollars and euros. In addition, over one billion dollars was raised through an American organization.
It is clarified that the bonds were issued as part of a so-called private placement. According to the FT, this is due to the desire of the Israeli authorities to quickly raise money without drawing attention to the huge military expenses.
Earlier it became known that the White House requested more than $61 billion in additional aid Ukraine as part of an overall package worth nearly $106 billion that also includes funding for Israel.
