Eid begins in Gaza with Israeli drones buzzing overhead
Israeli military drones are still buzzing in this part of [the] Rafah district, just to remind Palestinians that there is no sense of safety, even on a day that’s supposed to be a day for celebration and rejoicing, Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum reports from Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.
Still, Palestinians are here today performing the prayers of Eid al-Fitr as they have been gathering [and] congratulating each other despite the great deal of devastation, sadness and grief that surrounds them.
Earlier tonight, while Palestinians were preparing to rejoice [in] the arrival of Eid, Israeli fighter jets targeted a number of residential houses.
One of the latest bloody and deadly attacks killed at least 14 Palestinians in [the] Nuseirat refugee camp, an entire family being targeted, the victims including children and women.
