He explained in statements that the occupation soldiers closed the door of Al-Tawhid Mosque and waited for the prayer to end before subjecting the worshippers to individual searches, interrogations and identity checks, noting that soldiers prevented an elderly man from reaching the mosque, which prompted a number of residents to refrain from performing the prayer.
