There were protests against the Muezzin Bill in the Israeli Arab sector on Saturday, including about 1,500 protestors in the Galil, led by former Arab MK Mohammed Barakeh. Participants carried signs vowing to continue the battle until such time the bill is rescinded.

Protestors accused Israel of destroying Arab homes and humiliating the community. In the Israeli Arab municipality of Baka al-Garbiya, not far from Haifa, new speakers were installed atop the City Hall building to use them towards increasing the protests.
