Muslim pilgrims perform Hajj rituals as Islamic holiday of Eid al-Adha begins
Muslim pilgrims are participating in the final rituals of Hajj as the Islamic holiday of Eid al-Adha begins. The stoning of the devil, a symbolic act of rejecting evil, is being performed by thousands in Mina, Saudi Arabia. While many celebrate, others face challenges due to ongoing conflicts and economic pressures in various regions.

- ▪The last days of Hajj coincide with Eid al-Adha, marking the willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his son.
- ▪More than 1.5 million pilgrims have arrived from abroad for this year's Hajj.
