Muslims around the world celebrated Eid al-Fitr on Friday, marking the end of Ramadan. The holy month was marked by physical moon sightings in some countries, while others observed the festival a day earlier due to differences in timing. The celebration is distinct from Eid al-Adha and typically involves congregational prayers and festivities. However, the festival arrives this year amid conflicts and instability in many Muslim-majority countries, including Iran, Lebanon, and Sudan. Over one million people are displaced in Lebanon due to Israeli attacks, while the war in Sudan enters its third year.
