Muslims mark Eid 'tinged with sadness and joy'

Nearly one million Muslims in Australia are celebrating Eid-al-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan. However, the occasion is bittersweet as many are reminded of the suffering in Gaza. The Lebanese Muslim Association expressed conflicted feelings and a sense of guilt in celebrating while others are suffering. The death toll in Gaza has risen to over 50,000, with the UN calling for more aid. Eid is growing in importance in Australia as the number of Australians identifying as Muslim has doubled in the past 15 years.
