TRIPOLI -- Muslims in several countries begin marking the holy month of Ramadan on Wednesday, with fears of insecurity mixed with hopes for a tranquil and joyful holiday season.

The start of Ramadan, the ninth and holiest month of the Muslim calendar, is traditionally determined by the sighting of a new moon, often dividing rival Islamic countries and sects over the exact date.
