Israeli Settlers celebrate the end of Sukkot  

Pictured here: These settlers, whose settlements are illegal under International Law, danced and sang up and down Shuhada Street.  Military orders prevent Palestiniansfrom walking on Shuhada Street, although it is the main street in the Old City of Hebron. During Jewish festivals the movement restrictions on Palestinians and checkpoint closures increase.
