A Palestinian man prepares to break his fast on the remains of his house, which was destroyed during the 50-day Israeli war in the summer of 2014, on the second day of the holy month of Ramadan, in Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip on June 19, 2015. During Ramadan, Muslim believers abstain from eating, drinking, smoking and having sex from dawn until sunset. Ramadan is sacred to Muslims because it is during that month that tradition says the Koran was revealed to the Prophet Mohammed. The fast is one of the five main religious obligations under Islam.
