Residents of Hebron’s Old City and those living near the Ibrahimi Mosque have been deprived of hearing the call to prayer for 76 days; Occupation forces have banned the call since June 21 and prevented the mosque’s muezzin from accessing the call-to-prayer chamber.
The ban coincided with the construction of a 288-square-meter iron roof over the mosque’s courtyard—ostensibly for maintenance purposes—amid ongoing restrictions on worship and violations of the status quo that has been in effect at the mosque since 1994.
