Eid celebrations in Beirut and southern Lebanon are subdued amid ongoing conflict and displacement. Israeli strikes have killed over 900 to 1,000 people and forced more than one million residents to flee their homes. Many displaced families shelter in makeshift tents or converted schools, facing harsh conditions and uncertainty. Despite efforts by volunteers to bring some relief, the traditional joy of Eid is overshadowed by fear, loss, and destruction across the region.

Sentiment: The overall tone is somber and reflective, emphasizing the hardship and sorrow experienced by displaced families during Eid. While moments of community support and resilience are noted, the dominant sentiment is one of loss and disruption, with little positive framing due to the ongoing violence and its impact on civilians.
