Hebron - Saba:
The Israeli enemy authorities have refused to hand over the Ibrahimi Mosque, along with its facilities, courtyards, and gates, in the first day of Eid al-Adha.
Acting Director General of the Hebron Endowments Munjed al-Jabari said, according to the Palestinian WafaNews Agency, that the Israeli enemy forces refused to hand over the Ibrahimi Mosque and refused to open its eastern gate for the seventh time this year. This followed their refusal to hand it over on Fridays and Laylat al-Qadr during the holy month of Ramadan, in addition to Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha.
Al-Jabari explained that the Hebron Endowments refused to receive the Mosque incompletely, based on a firm position of rejecting any handover that does not include all parts of the Mosque. He considered this refusal a clear message that any infringement of the rights of Muslims in their holy site will not be accepted or recognized under any circumstances.
He called on the international community to shoulder its responsibilities and pressure the Israeli occupation authorities to halt their aggressive practices against the Ibrahimi Mosque, warning that this occupation approach aims to Judaize the Mosque and transform it into a Talmudic synagogue, as part of a systematic settlement plan.
He called on the Palestinian people, wherever they may be, to make their way to the Mosque. The Ibrahimi Mosque, participating in protecting its Islamic identity, and being present there regularly, especially during religious occasions, serves to affirm the truth and reject attempts to impose control by force.
It is worth noting that the Ibrahimi Mosque is fully open to Muslims for only 10 days a year, including Fridays during Ramadan, as well as holidays and religious occasions. This follows the 1994 massacre at the mosque, which led to the martyrdom of 29 worshippers and the injury of 150 others, at the hands of the terrorist settler Baruch Goldstein.
