Gaza Eid Prayers Amid Rubble As Starvation Grows | SHOCKING Footage From Gaza’s Eid Celebration

This Eid al-Adha, Gaza's displaced families prayed in rubble, lacking food, shelter, and hope. With mosques and homes destroyed, celebrations faded into grief. Nine civilians were killed while seeking aid, and famine threatens nearly all of Gaza. Children fear warplanes, not joy. As Israel continues its military operations, and the UN warns of starvation, Gazans mark Eid with mourning, not festivity. Over 54,000 have died, mostly women and children. The war, ignited on October 7, 2023, rages on—leaving Gaza broken, hungry, and unheard. #gazaeid #eidinrubble #palestinianstruggle #gazastarvation #warzoneeid #israelpalestineconflict #gaza2024 #eidunderfire #humanitarianaid #gazawarcrisis #eidprayersgaza #unwarnsfamine #refugeecampsgaza #rafahviolence #khanYounisattack #gazachildren #nofoodnogaza #gazahealthministry #gazahumanrights #eidmourning Also Read Middle East: UN Labels Gaza 'The Hungriest Place On Earth' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/middle-east-un-labels-gaza-the-hungriest-place-on-earth-4168609.html?ref=DMDesc Missile from Yemen Disrupts Flights in Israel Ahead of Key Vote on Gaza War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/missile-from-yemen-disrupts-flights-in-israel-ahead-of-key-vote-on-gaza-war-4143509.html?ref=DMDesc Immense Pressure From Families Of Hostages: Netanyahu Says Israel Has To Continue Fighting In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/immense-pressure-from-families-of-hostages-netanyahu-says-israel-has-to-continue-fighting-in-gaza-4128785.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~ED.346~
