Thousands of Jewish settlers on Saturday desecrated the Ibrahimi Mosque in al-Khalil city under military protection while Muslim worshipers were denied access to their holy site for Adhan and prayers.
According to local sources several buses carrying settlers brought thousands of settlers to the Old City of al-Khalil in order to mark a religious event at the Islamic holy site.
Meanwhile the Israeli occupation forces forced storeowners to close their businesses in the vicinity of the Mosque and prevented local residents from being present in nearby areas.
Many tents were pitched by settlers in the Mosque’s courtyards to spend their day and the next night inside the holy site amid loud music sounds.
