Israeli forces close Hebron’s Ibrahimi Mosque to Muslims to mark Passover

Shafaqna EnglishThe Israeli army has closed the Ibrahimi Mosque in the occupied West Bank city of Hebron to Muslims today (15 Apr 2025), to allow illegal settlers to celebrate the Jewish holiday of Passover, according to a Palestinian official.

“The Mosque will remain closed for two days due to Passover celebrations,” Mosque Director Akram Al-Tamimi told Anadolu.

Al-Tamimi said this meant that Palestinian worshippers were banned from approaching the site for two days amid tight security conditions.

“The Israeli army, however, opened all sections of the Mosque to illegal settlers,” he added.
