Every night during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, the man would come along Rawoand Altatar’s street, banging on his drum and calling out to the faithful to wake them up for suhoor, the predawn meal.
His nightly mission used to be lit up by Ramadan lamps and twinkling decorations.
But this Ramadan, Ms. Altatar’s street is eerie.
There are no decorations or electricity, and the street is surrounded by buildings destroyed or damaged in Israel’s bombardment.
“There is no sense of Ramadan,” she said, referring to the month when Muslims fast all day.
