Muslims in Gaza Mark Start of Ramadan Amid Fragile Ceasefire

The start of Ramadan marks a significant moment for over 2 million Muslims living in war-battered Gaza, but it comes at a time when a fragile ceasefire is under threat. This is the second Ramadan to begin since the start of the conflict in Gaza.

Humanitarian groups and Arab nations have condemned Israel’s actions, with some comments expressing criticism of its impact on Palestinian civilians. The conflict has made life particularly difficult for Gazans during Ramadan, who face hardships due to the blockade and ongoing violence.

As the situation remains precarious, Arab leaders are rushing to plan a future for Gaza. Meanwhile, efforts are being made to monitor the status of hostages still in Gaza after a recent Hamas attack.
