STORYLINE:

Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Muslim's holy fasting month of Ramadan when faithfuls abstain from eating, drinking, smoking and sexual activities from dawn to dusk

Israel’s decision to close its only crossing for Palestinian workers coming from the Gaza Strip has been denounced as “collective punishment” of the impoverished territory’s two million residents who have lived under an Israeli-Egyptian blockade for nearly 15 years.

The move, announced on Saturday, comes after the Israeli army accused Hamas, of firing three rockets into Israel late on Friday, as tensions continue to mount during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
