Tent protest initiator: We want affordable housing for everyone

Tent protest initiator Daphni Leef expressed wonder at the number of people who have turned out at the rally against the escalating housing prices in Tel Aviv, saying, "I'm shocked by what's happening here…we are not alone. I never thought that by giving up my apartment I'd find a home.

"A roof over our heads is the basis that everyone must have. There are people here who are fighting for every penny in order to struggle for a roof," she added. "We have to demand what we deserve, because under the circumstances we won't have any dreams. There is no time to dream when one has to pay rent and a mortgage. We want affordable housing for everyone, and we need to make some noise to get solutions." (Roi Kais)
