Roughly 500 people gathered at twilight to celebrate Iftar in the Saint-Jean-Baptiste church in Belgium's Molenbeek on Sunday. The shared meal was organised as part of the district's bid to become the European Capital of Culture in 2030.
The date of the event was not chosen at random, as it marked the ninth anniversary of the Brussels bombings that happened on March 22 in 2016, and over ten years since the Paris attacks in 2015.
