Unknown vandals desecrate mosque in northern village, spray 'Up for demolition,' 'Price tag' on building.
Ibtin residents discovered the desecration prior to Wednesday's morning prayer.
"It's not easy reading such things, especially given the fact that the village's mosque was already torched in 1988," the mosque's keeper Muahmmad Umriyeh said.
Zevulun Regional Council, which contains Ibtin, has sent representatives to ease tensions and erase the graffiti.
Council Head Dov Yeshurun told Ynet that the perpetrators were "provocateurs whose only aim is to stir up incitement between Jews ad Arabs in the region."
