Following this announcement, the country is set to celebrate Eid al-Fitr today, bringing an end to the month-long fasting period observed by Muslims. Religious leaders and local authorities have urged citizens to observe the festival with traditional prayers, charity, and family gatherings while maintaining safety measures.
Eid celebrations are expected to include communal prayers in mosques and open grounds, as well as festive gatherings and acts of charity to support those in need. Markets and shops across major cities are prepared for increased activity, with people purchasing gifts, sweets, and clothing to mark the occasion. The announcement allows families and communities to come together in joy and reflection after a month of spiritual devotion.
