Israel has gripped since mid-July by a rapidly growing protest movement demanding cheaper housing, education and health care.
Comment: Paid for by the U.S. taxpayer, no doubt.
"We want to strengthen the movement in the periphery, where those who have pitched tents in protest are still few, so we have made a call to leave Tel Aviv and Jerusalem to take part in rallies in twelve cities," said Stav Shafir, a protest leader.
"The main gathering will be held in Beersheba in the south, but there will also be events in Haifa (Israel's third-largest city), Netanya, Afula, Beit Shean, Eilat and Dimona," she said.
