Herkulliset otsikot ja synkät varjot: Gazan asukkaat viettävät haikeaa Eid al-Adhaa

Eid al-Adha - Gaza - Hamas - IDF - Ismail Haniyeh - Israel - muslimit - Presidentti Joe Biden

Gaza on tulossa nälänhätäisemmäksi, kun Israel jatkaa hyökkäystään. Lue, miten muslimiyhteisö kokee juhlan varjossa.

Gaza asukkaat viettävät synkkää Eid al-Adhaa Israelin hyökkäyksen varjossa. Tyypillisesti muslimien juhlaan kuuluu eläimen teurastaminen rakkaansa ja tarvitsevien ruoaksi, mutta monille Gazassa tämä on mahdotonta nälän vuoksi. Vaikka muslimit ympäri maailman juhlivat Eid al-Adhaa, Gazassa, jossa avustusryhmät sanovat nälänhädän olevan lähellä, tilanne on synkkä. Palestiinalaiset viettivät viime kesän Eid al-Adhaa suurella ilolla ja herkkujen kera, mutta tänä vuonna synkeä varjo leijuu yllä. IDF ilmoitti väliaikaisesta aselepohjasta eteläisessä Gazassa, kun Hamasin poliittinen johtaja Ismail Haniyeh viittasi valmiuteen aselepoon. Gaza on kokenut rankan israelilaisen kampanjan yli kahdeksan kuukauden ajan, mikä on aiheuttanut tuhoa, karkottanut suurimman osan 2.4 miljoonasta asukkaastaan ja johtanut nälänhätään.
