(TIMES OF ISRAEL) — A teenage girl was told she couldn’t sing in a municipal show on Sunday because it would offend an ultra-Orthodox man in the audience.

The head of education at the Merom HaGalil Regional Council later apologized for his decision to remove a singing performance by Eliyana Hayut, 13, in a musical interlude during an education conference organized by the council, and said it was a wrong decision made under pressure.

The council, which administers an area of northern Israel, said the incident was due to a “misunderstanding,” and also apologized.
