Gaza residents mark Eid al-Adha under blockade and beneath the rubble
Palestinians in Gaza have begun Eid al-Adha under siege, surrounded by destruction and displacement, as Israel's blockade and relentless bombardment continue to devastate daily life in the enclave.

Footage emerging from across the Strip shows worshippers gathering for Eid prayers amid the ruins of bombed-out homes and mosques. Others observed the holy day from makeshift shelters and overcrowded camps, where thousands remain displaced with no path to return.

The scenes stand in stark contrast to the spirit of Eid al-Adha — a time of unity, sacrifice and communal joy for Muslims worldwide.
Instead, families in Gaza continue to endure shortages of food, water, medicine and fuel, with humanitarian agencies warning of catastrophic conditions exacerbated by Israel's ongoing military campaign and tight blockade.
