Protesting against the Israeli ban on the Muslim call to prayer, hundreds of Muslims, Christians and Jewish Samaritans yesterday raised the Muslim call to prayer together in Nablus’ main square, the Safa news agency reported.
Residents, representatives of Palestinian factions and followers and representatives of all three monotheistic religions attended the protest, under the slogan “minarets will never be silenced”. All of the participants raised the athan (call to prayer) together.
Activist Mazen Al-Danbak, who called for organising the protest a week ago, said: “This protest sends a message to the Israeli occupation telling it to stop playing with our holy sites, as well as sending a message to the world asking it where it is regarding these flagrant violations against holy sites.”
