Women of the Wall have complained about an area set aside for them via police barricades at the back of the women's prayer area at the Western Wall of the Temple in Jerusalem's Old City, away from the men's prayer area, calling it "a disgrace".
The setup prevented physical violence as the group held its monthly service to mark the start of the Jewish month of Nissan. A woman was heard screaming at the group in a video on its Facebook page in an otherwise peaceful observance.
