Eid has yet to be announced and can still be Sun22 / Mon23 or Mon23 / Tues24 depending on the sighting of the moon.

its there in emaratalyoum news paper
According to Emirates Astronomical society its impossible to sight the moon on that day..
^ian^
I had always thought we were going to get those days off.
Whilst it does depend on the sighting of the moon, it would take some astrophysical phenomenon to change where the moon is going to be.

The month of Ramadan can only be 29 or 30 days, so if it is not declared at the end of the 29th day then the end of the 30th day is automatically Eid.
