David Mizrahi, one of the initiators of the Yellow Vest cost-of-living protest, told a Knesset Economics Committee discussion on recently-announced price hikes, "The shining vest is going to light up a lot of families, I represent the hungry children whose fathers are afraid of the electricity bill." He warned that the announced price hike for electricity will lead to more protests.

Committee Chairman Eitan Cabel stood up to shake Mizrachi's hand and said, "Your words as a hungry child touched my heart. Your war is our war."
