Confrontations are occuring between Women of the Wall, who are celebrating 30 years of activity at the Western Wall, and ultra-orthodox Jews as well as female religious students, the latter conducting a mass prayer at the women's section of the Wall in a bid to upset the celebrations, according to a report in Maariv.Police forces are separating the two sides.
The Women of the Wall organization has been fighting for the right of women to pray at the Western Wall in a similar fashion to men, with singing, reading aloud from the Torah, and the wearing of certain religious garments traditionally worn only by men.
