Border Police head towards the mosque, where the others are waiting,

An Israeli ambulance waits beside the mosque.
An elderly woman was put into the ambulance. I hope and pray she was OK.
The ambulance leaves. Notice how there are no soldiers or settlers blocking it. I pray and hope that Palestinian ambulances also will be able to drive through Hebron without facing problems from the Israeli Army.
Israeli settlers leaving the synagogue, and coming into the Souq (1). Whole families came out. It is very sad to see children being indoctrinated this way.
Israeli settlers, under heavy guard, and coming through the gate into the Souq.
More Israeli settlers leaving the synagogue, and coming into the Souq.
A settler boy looks on at the armed men who are here to guard him and the other settlers, in the process obstructing the Palestinians they will come across.
A line is made for the settlers.
Palestinians and internationals were made to keep distance from the tour. Clearly, some soldiers were not happy we were there. I have to confess the feeling was mutual.
