Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid al-Fitr, one of the biggest celebrations in the Islamic calendar.

Eid al-Fitr – which means “festival of the breaking of the fast” – is celebrated at the end of Ramadan, a month of fasting for many adults, as well as spiritual reflection and prayer.

Η ιστοσελίδα anixneuseis.gr ιδρύθηκε προς το τέλος της δεκαετίας του 90’ από τον κύριο συντελεστή της εκπομπής «Ανιχνεύσεις» της ΕΡΤ3, Παντελή Σαββίδη. Ο λόγος ήταν να υπάρχει άμεση, αμφίδρομη επικοινωνία με τους αναγνώστες- τηλεθεατές οι οποίοι σχολίαζαν και πρότειναν ερωτήσεις οι οποίες αναλύονταν στην εκπομπή. Αυτό διήρκεσε ως την ημέρα που ολοκληρώθηκε ο κύκλος της εκπομπής. Από την επομένη, μια νέα περίοδος άρχιζε με το ιστολόγιο να αποκτά μια ανεξάρτητη, αυτόνομη και αυτοτελή υπόσταση. Ο στόχος μας είναι να αναλύσουμε και να ενημερώσουμε τον κόσμο για την σύγχρονη επικαιρότητα, όπως και γίνεται τα τελευταία 25 χρόνια από τις στήλες της ιστοσελίδας, με την δική σας βοήθεια.
