Saudi Arabia has declared Wednesday, April 10, as the first day of Eid-ul-Fitr this year, after the crescent moon was not sighted on Monday evening.
The sighting of the Shawwal moon marks the end of Ramzan and the beginning of Eid-ul-Fitr, a Muslim festival.
It may be noted that Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) marked the first Ramzan on Monday, March 11.
