About 100 members of the events industry arrived this evening (Saturday) at the home of Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Yair Lapid on Feinstein Street in Tel with the aim of setting up a protest tent. "Apart from himself, it was decided to escalate the protest against the members of the government who are working on us all with their eyes."
In preparation for the construction of the encampment, a video went viral over the weekend, showing the election promises of Bennett and Lapid to the independent public, promises that the protesters say they are not fulfilling these days.

Noam Levy, chairman of the Association of Halls and Event Gardens, one of the organizers of the protest, told Israel Today: "We built a protest tent near Yair Lapid's house, because he was one of the key people who formed this government. To us, as he promised us.
Give people the money before their business is destroyed.
Yair Lapid needs to stop lying because we owe this livelihood now.
What you see today is the first swallow.
In the coming days, there will be a very significant escalation of this protest, something that has not been seen until today. "
Ben Gvir in protest,
Last week, Prime Minister Bennett and Deputy Prime Minister Abir Kara were scheduled to meet with business owners, but the meeting was canceled because Kara was infected with Corona and no new meeting has been scheduled yet.
The protesters said they intend to come to the encampment every day until the compensation money is received.
Meanwhile, Finance Minister Avigdor Lieberman, who was interviewed tonight by Rina Matzliach on the "Meet the Press" program, continued to insist that he intends to wait until the end of February to decide on the compensation, after submitting VAT reports.
