Egypt’s top administrative court has ordered authorities to block YouTube for a month over a video that disparages the prophet Mohamed.

The decision is the latest in a years-long saga over the 2012 trailer for Innocence of Muslims, an anti-Islamic film which depicted the prophet in a negative light. In 2013, a lower administrative court ordered Egypt’s ministry of communications to block the video-sharing website, but the ruling was stayed as the case was appealed in the courts.
