Nili Philipp, right, and Miriam Zussman, who are leading a campaign against gender segregation in Beit Shemesh, stand near 'modesty sign' on wall. The pair have been awarded damages from court after the refusal of the municipality to remove 'modesty signs'. Such signs are hung in ultra-orthodox Jewish neighbourhoods in the city, asking women who pass through to dress in a modest manner.
