Three extremist Jews attempted to torch the western gate of 'Hassan Bek' Mosque in Jaffa built in 1916 by a Turkish-Arab Governor. The Mosque carries the name of the Governor. According to Palestinian sources, the perpetrators set fire on the plastic cover attached to the gate and ran away, but a number of Muslims worshipers in the Mosque managed to extinguish the fire before it caused any further damage to the gate and the mosque.
