Two church buildings within the Greek city of Vrontados had been lit up on Saturday night time, as they fired streams of rockets at one another as a part of an Orthodox Easter custom.
All through the annual “rocket conflict”, Easter Mass continues contained in the church buildings on the island of Chios.
The spectacle dates again to the 1800s – when Greece was dominated by the Ottoman empire – however now rockets are used as a substitute of cannons.
Components of the native space are boarded up with metallic boundaries, to attempt to defend them from hearth injury.
