Three days ago 400,000 people participated in demonstrations in cities throughout Israel. a lot of people for a small country.
unfortunately there's so much more issues than written in Wikipedia, but for more 'official' info:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_Israeli_housing_protests
I disagree with the term "housing protests".
the more common use of name is "tents protests", it's for everything related to social issues and living expanse, and maybe for everything I can think of.
tents - because of the thousands of people who sleeps on the streets in tents.
the protest in some matters is very similar to what happens these days in Spain:

I'd like to share some videos,
the protest at it's begining (23 of July, nine days after started) in one of the nights in Tel Aviv, the crowd show the police that they are not violating the law, the protesters passing the streets only when there's green light as a symbol:

Music in the "tents village" of Tel Aviv:
