An Israeli Jewish woman of the Women of the Wall organization prays while wearing a prayer shawl outside the Western Wall, the holiest site where Jews can pray in Jerusalem's old city, Monday, July 8, 2013. Police denied Women of the Wall and their supporters entry to the women's prayer section, citing security concerns. The group, known as “Women of the Wall”, convenes monthly prayer services at the Western Wall, wearing prayer shawls and performing rituals that ultra-Orthodox Jews believe only men are allowed to do.
