Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana announces an NIS 80 million shekel ($20 million) cut from the Knesset’s operational budget, which the Knesset will transfer to the war effort.
Ohana’s office says that this cut represents 17.5% of the Knesset’s non-fixed expenses, and that salaries and other obligations required by law are not touched by the cut.
