and it was last restored in 1963. It is the only mosque in Umm  Tuba.

historic Islamic sites in Palestine which is violation of all religious values 
 and international treaties.

and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) which is charged with protecting human  
cultural heritage around the world, and other international organizations to  
prevent the demolition of the  mosque.
