A sense of joy and pleasure, and a happy atmosphere full of feelings of friendship and love, was evident in the collective breakfast organized by Ataa, with the generous support of brothers in Palestine 48 Merciful Hearts Association, at Ataa residential gathering in Jarablus, northeast of Aleppo.
Before breakfast, people gathered to watch folk rituals, enjoy the sounds of beautiful anthems that delighted them, then gathered around the tables and started the collective breakfast in a scene that attracts hearts, suggests familiarity and increases the sense of spirituality of Ramadan.
