By Reuters |
People sat on prayer mats that they placed among the rubble of surrounding destroyed buildings, while few children wore the traditional jalabiya on their way to prayers.
Palestinians in Khan Younis held Eid ul-Adha prayers among ruins on Sunday but the city lacked signs of celebration amid Israel’s war with Hamas.
Nour al-Beheiry told Reuters, “This Eid we are in pain because of losing our beloved and a lot of martyrs. The occupation has destroyed our houses, there’s no celebration, the joy is incomplete, we lost our beloved and a lot of people have been killed. I hope God will compensate us and wish for a blessed Eid al-Adha.”
