National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir responded to the report by ynet and "Yedioth Ahronoth" regarding Tel Aviv municipality's demand that synagogues provide religious services "without distinctions based on gender or faith," stating that the municipality has "declared war on Judaism." According to Ben-Gvir: "Harming synagogues, the heart of Jewish identity and tradition - is a disgrace and crosses every red line. Whoever thinks they can uproot the Torah and the identity of our people - is greatly mistaken. I demand that the Tel Aviv municipality immediately stop this dangerous and contemptible move."
