Bangladesh celebrates Eid with grand processions and prayers

Dhaka marked Eid al-Fitr with large congregations and the revival of a traditional Eid procession, bringing thousands of worshippers together on Monday.

Prayers were held in mosques and open grounds of Bangladesh's capital, followed by a vibrant procession featuring horse-drawn carriages and musical displays, organised by Dhaka North City Corporation.

The festival comes amid political shifts in Bangladesh and tensions in the Middle East, with prayers offered for peace in Palestine.
