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~

Bastille Day 2025: Indonesia’s Military Parade Steals Spotlight As President Prabowo Visits France

Bastille Day 2025 in Paris turned into a diplomatic and military spectacle as Indonesia—the world’s largest Muslim-majority nation—led the foreign guest honors. Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto arrived to oversee the march of his country’s troops, including a striking 200-member military drum unit, through the Champs-Élysées. The gesture marked a deepening of Franco-Indonesian defense ties, with expectations high for Jakarta to confirm major purchases of French Rafale fighter jets and other arms. #BastilleDay2025 #IndonesiaInParis #PrabowoSubianto #FrenchMilitaryParade #RafaleDeal #Oneindia #ParisParade #FranceIndonesiaTies #MilitaryShowcase #AsianPower #ChampsElysees #FranceNews #WorldDiplomacy #MacronPrabowo #IndonesiaFranceDeal #DefenceTies #IndonesianDrummers #ElyseeDinner #ParidhiReports #ParisNews
