Desecrated Church: Icons are Still Hidden

The 9th and 10th century mosaics and frescoes in the Hagia Sophia – which was turned on July 24 into a mosque - are still covered and have been hidden from visitors for almost three weeks.

The Turkish government had promised that they would be visible outside of Islamic prayer hours.

However, since the church was desecrated, this hasn't been the case.
