Włochy: zamknięto kolejne nielegalne meczety
Włoska policja zamknęła ostatnio pięć nielegalnie działających w Rzymie meczetów. Na te działania wyznawcy islamu odpowiedzieli „modlitewnym protestem”. W miniony piątek zebrali się przy wznoszącym się nieopodal Koloseum Łuku Konstantyna, upamiętniającym cesarza, który jako pierwszy dał chrześcijanom swobodę wyznania. Co więcej, decyzję włoskich władz potępiło też działające w Kairze Obserwatorium Przeciwko Islamofobii, zależne od rządu Egiptu. W specjalnym komunikacie podkreśliło ono, że „zamykanie meczetów może przyczynić się do wzmacniania radykalizmu i dawać ekstremistom usprawiedliwienie dla ich aktów kryminalnych”.
