Police Commissioner Dani Levy stated that the police require additional funding to effectively implement the lessons learned from the October 7th events. Speaking at a meeting focused on the events of October 7th, Levy directly addressed National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, emphasizing the critical need for increased budgets.

"I say with a clear voice, to best implement the lessons learned from the October 7th investigations, the police need budgets," Levy declared. He further assured the citizens of Israel that all efforts would be made to secure the necessary funds, which would enable the police to provide them with the best possible service.

The commissioner's remarks highlight a perceived gap between the operational needs of the police in light of the security failures of October 7th and their current financial resources. The call for more funding is framed as essential for improving the force's preparedness and response capabilities.
