The Committee on Religious Affairs has updated the list of Telegram, YouTube channels, Facebook, OK.RU, Instagram, and TikTok pages and sites that are considered to contain the ideas of extremism and terrorism and are forbidden to import, prepare, distribute and display in Uzbekistan. The list also includes banned books and publications.

The government of Uzbekistan adopted a decision aimed at strengthening the requirements for the organization and conduct of the Umrah. According to him, the entrepreneurs engaged in this activity were required not to provide services to minors, to reserve 1 million US dollars for the "Ziyarat" fund, and not to carry out their activities through tour operators and travel agents.

The chairman of the Committee on Religious Affairs, Sadiqjon Toshboev, supported the request to deposit $1 million for the Umra license. "This is not a big amount... If there was a problem with those 15,000 people, we could not bring back even 100 people for the 100,000 dollars invested," said the representative of the Religious Committee. He also gave information about going to Umrah pilgrimage independently.
