The West Bank has several highways on which Palestinians are not allowed to travel, but in Hebron, even a main street divides the settlers and the local Palestinians.

This picture was taken on Monday on the Shuhada street in Hebron:

Note who gets the bigger part of the road… well, nobody in Hebron ever claimed that separate is equal.

A day of international solidarity with the Palestinian people of Hebron will take place on February 24. A protest march is planned, details [Hebrew] here.
