Not everyone is lucky enough to eat fast........ Large numbers of low-income people turned up at Iftar tents across the country on the first day of Ramadan yesterday, leaving several tent organisers embarrassed as meal packets fell short.

At several tents in Doha at least, large crowds descended at Iftar time, leading to chaotic scenes.

One person said he waited for long at a tent in the Old Airport Area but had to leave disappointed as meal packets ran short and he didn’t get any.
