Israeli occupation forces closed the Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron, southern West Bank, on Wednesday and barred worshippers from entering, the Hebron Endowments Directorate said in a statement.

Occupation forces raided and searched several homes across Hebron governorate, the directorate said. The mosque was sealed to worshippers and visitors to secure a storming of the site by extremist settlers, who cited Jewish holidays as a pretext, according to the statement.
