The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) stormed Masjid Khaled Ibn Al-Walid in the Al-Kassara area, east Hebron and caused damage to it. 

Nedal Al-Ja’bari, the director general of Awqaf in Hebron, stated that the IOF's firing tear gas canisters and bullets toward Al-Masjid is considered a blatant violation of the holy places’ sanctity. Hence, the windows were broken, and the poison gas has spread dramatically inside Al-Masjid.

Moreover, he mentioned that it wasn’t the first time Al-Masjid had been stormed this way by the IOF. To wit, they tried to set fire to it during Ramadan. Al-Ja’bari added that such subsequent assaults against the holy religious places are an Israeli racial policy to apply religious cleansing.
