A discussion in the Knesset Finance Committee on damage caused by a cluster missile strike near the home of MK Moshe Gafni quickly turned into a mix of humor and political tension, as lawmakers traded barbs over the incident.

The matter, dubbed the “shutter incident,” was raised Tuesday during a committee session, referring to damage sustained at Gafni’s residence following an Iranian cluster missile strike on a nearby building on Rechov Rav Yitzchak Nissim in Bnei Brak.

During the discussion, Gafni praised officials from the Israel Tax Authority, noting that they promptly dispatched two representatives to assess the damage caused near his home.

The tone in the room shifted as lawmakers began joking about the situation. MK Yinon Azulai of Shas drew laughter when he quipped, “The prime minister received 1.7 million shekels for a drone hitting the window of his home in Caesarea. Huch did you get?”

MK Yitzchak Pindrus added to the humor, saying, “There will probably be a classified discussion about it.”

Not all remarks were lighthearted. MK Naor Shiri of Yesh Atid struck a sharper tone, stating, “If the prime minister had called me like he called Gafni, I would have hung up on him.”
