A group described as 'Women of Provocation' arrived at the Western Wall this morning and attempted to hold a Reform prayer minyan, disrupting other worshippers and bringing a Torah scroll into the women's section in violation of the site's regulations, according to Channel 14.
The group, which calls itself the 'Women of Provocation,' has staged several protests at the Western Wall in recent months. On June 16, as The Zioneer reported, a Reform minyan was held at the site, and a woman was seen carrying a Torah scroll and a Pride flag. Today's incident is another such action. The Western Wall Heritage Foundation, which administers the site, has not yet commented. The incident is likely to reignite debate over the status quo at the holy site.
