Goat Sacrifice During Dashain Festival In Nepal
GRAPHIC CONTENT: Nepalese Army personnel sacrifice a goat as an offering to the Gods and Goddesses during Maha Nawami, the ninth day of the Dashain festival, at Kathmandu Durbar Square in Kathmandu, Nepal, on October 1, 2025. Dashain, Nepal's longest and most important Hindu festival, symbolizes the victory of good over evil. On Maha Nawami, animals such as goats, ducks, roosters, and buffaloes are ritually sacrificed at temples dedicated to the goddesses, while some devotees offer fruits and vegetables as symbolic substitutes.
