Before the war started, the streets in Gaza were busy with people during Eid al-Fitr, accompanied by the sound of takbir as people prepared to welcome the Eid al-Fitr holiday. However, this year, this tradition will no longer exist in Gaza City, Alral, and Alsaha markets.

The market used to be very busy with crowds of people buying new clothes for their children as well as chocolates and cakes. Currently, both markets are completely destroyed, the roads are closed, and the shops are still closed. No one wants to buy because few people dare to leave their homes, even for the dangerous task of looking for aid delivery.

A Palestinian citizen named Muhammed Aziz, who is now 10 years old, lives with his older sister, who is married, at a UN-run school in the North Gaza area. He lost his parents and one of his brothers. The small town, mostly a refugee camp, had been heavily bombed by Israel, causing many casualties during the first month of the war.

  Muhammed Aziz had gone to buy potatoes for his mother when their house was destroyed and his parents and brother were killed in the Israeli airstrike. His older sister fills the void left by their mother, but she also struggles with missing their family in these difficult times.

Hanin Hinawi, who is now a 35-year-old refugee from Gaza City who is currently living in a Rafah tent, said her children understand that they are going through difficult times. Her family understands that there will be no Eid al-Fitr celebrations in the region this year.
