Description:
A community group has knitted a life-sized tank to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings.<br/><br/>Around 30 volunteers spent eight hours a day for nine months knitting eight-inch squares for the artwork, which was modelled on a Churchill AVRE tank. The stunning creation is now a whopping 24ft (7.3cm) wide and 7ft (2.1m) tall and is covered in the olive green squares that the volunteers knitted.

It is also known as the Night of Power or Night of Decree. Laylat-ul-Qadr falls within the last ten nights of Ramadan. Exact date of Laylat-ul-Qadr or Laylat al-Qadr or Shab-e-Qadr is not fixed. Laylat-ul-Qadr is believed to occur on one of the odd-numbered nights during the last ten days of Ramadan, meaning the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, or 29th night. A section of the Muslim community believes that Laylat-ul-Qadr occurs on the 27th of Ramadan. Laylat-ul-Qadr can occur on March 31, April 2, April 4, April 6 and April 8. In Saudi Arabia, however, these dates are March 30, April 1, April 3, April 5 and April 7. Watch the video to know more.")
