The Italian government has issued a new decree banning face coverings in schools. Under the rule, students, teachers and parents will no longer be allowed to cover their faces with garments such as the burqa or niqab on school premises. Violations carry fines of up to 1,000 euros. The move has drawn attention online, with supporters framing it as a security measure and critics likely to question its impact on religious freedom.

Why now: The decree's restrictions on religious face coverings and the fines involved are controversial and freshly announced.
