Muslims across the world have spent June observing the religious month of Ramadan. In Gaza, where reconstruction after three wars in six years has stalled, the celebrations, fasts followed by feasts, and prayer has brought a welcomed sense of normalcy.
At night the landscape is set alight with festive lanterns. Charity drives are organized at this time of year to provide dinner iftar meals. Some families picnic at the sea for breakfast and in the late evening, others take to barbecue joints where grilled meats are served with salads.
Palestinian photographer Mohammed Asad brings a glimpse of how Gazans enjoy the month of Ramadan with many smiles and decorations.
