They definitely went all out
They went all out, painting every house facade white and adding splashes of graffiti featuring famous Ramadan phrases and even some love for Palestine! As the sun started to set, the streets came alive with chants and dance-offs, celebrating a decade of iftar fun on the 15th of Ramadan.
Meanwhile, tables stretched along the sidewalks, loaded with goodies, while the youth and ladies put the finishing touches on the spread. It was a feast fit for a king (or 25,000 of them)!

A joyous event with over 25k fasting individuals
Some of the young people from Al-Matariya took to the streets, singing and dancing joyfully to mark the tenth consecutive year of the annual iftar event on the 15th of Ramadan.
Initial estimates suggest that around 25,000 fasting individuals from the neighborhood attended the Al-Matariya iftar. The residents arranged a spacious kitchen area to handle the large amounts of food prepared for the attendees.
Thousands of residents from both Al-Matariya and Hamada village came together to join in the Al-Matariya iftar festivities, which have been a tradition for a decade.
