Libya's middle class worries over high sacrificial animal costs
During the Eid al-Adha season in Libya, there is a significant increase in the prices of sheep, ranging between 2,500 and 4,000 dinars. This amount exceeds the majority of employees' monthly salaries, making it a major challenge for the middle class to afford the sacrificial animal.

Celebrating the holiday has become socially essential, as sacrificing an animal is considered a symbol of social cohesion, despite the economic challenges faced by Libyans.
