Eid reprieve: Palestinian economic woes save sacrificial lambs

Description

Vendors sell sheep at a market in the northern West Bank town of Nablus ahead of the Muslim Eid al-Adha, feast of the sacrifice, celebrations. The financial crisis in the Palestinian territories is causing hard times for residents but may lead to an unexpected reprieve for many sheep as locals struggle to afford an animal to sacrifice.
