Relatives of Palestinians killed by an extremist Jew at Hebron's Ibrahimi Mosque in 1994 hold a candle light vigil in the southern West Bank town of Hebron on February 25, 2009 to mark the 15th anniversary since Jewish fanatic Baruch Goldstein opened fire on worshippers, killing 29 people and wounding another 125 before being killed himself. Hebron's holy site, the Tomb of the Patriarchs, where Old Testament prophet Abraham and his son Isaac are thought to be buried, reflects the city's deep divisions, with the compound split between a synagogue and a mosque named after Abraham as well.
