- Israel's Knesset advances bill to ban call to prayer by mosques over loudspeakers
Israel's Knesset approved a bill in its preliminary reading to ban the broadcasting of the call to prayer from mosques via loudspeakers. The legislation, introduced by Otzma Yehudit and backed by Yisrael Beiteinu, requires explicit authorization for mosque sound systems. Palestinian National Council head Rawhi Fattouh condemned the bill as a violation of freedom of worship.
