JERUSALEM (AP) — Prayers by a liberal Jewish women's group at a key Jerusalem holy site passed without incident Sunday, in contrast to violent scuffles with ultra-Orthodox protesters a month ago.
The women wear prayer shawls and other religious articles that ultra-Orthodox tradition holds are strictly for men.
Police escorted the women to and from the site Sunday morning. Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said some ultra-Orthodox men shouted insults, but police made no arrests.
