- Austria hotel’s burkini ban discriminatory, court finds
An Austrian court ruled that a hotel's ban on burkinis was discriminatory, upholding a fine against the establishment in St. Johann im Pongau. The hotel manager argued the swimwear was unhygienic and caused discomfort, but the court rejected this claim, stating the ruling would not set a nationwide precedent.
