Far-right Israeli minister Itamar Ben-Gvir is advancing a bill to restrict the Muslim call to prayer (adhan) across occupied Palestine, claiming it causes noise and harms the quality of life and health of Israeli settlers.
The bill would impose heavy fines of up to 50,000 shekels if mosques operate loudspeakers without official approval, and would allow for their confiscation.
Since taking office nearly three years ago, Ben-Gvir has continuously attempted to ban the call to prayer from mosques and has downplayed incidents of Israelis spitting on churches, describing them as an “old Jewish tradition."
