Earlier today, the Supreme Court had urged citizens to inform in case they spot the moon: “The ministry invites citizens and residents to explore the vision of the holy month of Ramadan for this year on Saturday (Sha'ban 29, 1440 - May 4, 2019). If the moon was not visible then look for it on Sunday (Sha'ban 30, 1440 - May 5, 2019)".
