Since October 2023, the government of the State of Israel Compensation Fund has paid approximately one million claimants (individuals and businesses) more than thirty million Shekels (approximately US$10 billion) for war damage relief.
The government of the State of Israel has refused to compensation to inhabitants (individuals and businesses) in the internationally-recognized territory of Gaza. The Trump-Vance Administration (2025-2029) is aligned with the government of the State of Israel in embracing OPM- other people’s money.
Muslim-led governments with Muslim-majority populations have done nothing to force the government of the State of Israel to provide compensation.
In 2025, the Washington DC-based International Monetary Fund (IMF) estimated the Israel has the 25th largest economy with a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at US$578 billion.
In 2026, the government of the State of Israel has approximately US$234 billion in foreign exchange reserves. The reserves represent approximately 38% of GDP.
“Israel’s compensation fund, a tax-agency department providing financial relief to civilians and businesses for property damage inflicted during wars, has deployed dozens of teams across the nation to assess damage at sites impacted by missiles and rockets fired from Iran and by Hezbollah, its Lebanon-based proxy. Since the Hamas attacks in October 2023, the fund says it has handled about 1 million claims and made roughly 30 billion shekels ($10 billion) in payments- equal to about 1.5% of Israel’s GDP.”

Through legislation, the State of Israel has undertaken to compensate its citizens for direct and indirect damages caused as a result of acts of hostility or war operations. The compensation is made under the Property Tax and Compensation Fund Law, 1961. Under the same law, compensations are also paid for damages caused by drought in different geographic regions.
