IOA Closes Ibrahimi Mosque for Muslims, Opens It for Jews

The Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) closed the Ibrahimi mosque in Al-Khalil for two days starting Saturday and opened it for Jews to celebrate Yom Kippur.

The director of Awkaf in Al-Khalil, Tayseer Abu Snene, said that the Ibrahimi mosque would be closed in full before Palestinian worshipers while Jews would be allowed free access to all its hallways and yards.
He said that the step, which was taken to celebrate the Jewish feast, is in violation of Muslims’ right of worship and a provocation to Muslim feelings. He asked for intervention by all parties that can influence the IOA in order to stop violations in the Ibrahimi mosque.
