Western Wall rabbi apologizes for gender segregation during Pence visit
The rabbi of the Western Wall apologizes for separating female reporters from their male colleagues during US Vice President Mike Pence’s visit to the holy site last week.
“I would like to express my sorrow at the distress caused to the diplomatic correspondent at your paper,” Shmuel Rabinovitch says in a letter to the Globes business daily.
The paper’s Tal Schneider said last week she would sue Rabinovitch over the separate fenced-off area female reporters were required to stand in during Pence’s visit.
