Two church buildings within the Greek city of Vrontados have 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 that dates again to the 1800s – when Greece was dominated by the Ottoman empire – however now rockets are used as a substitute of cannons.
Elements of the native space are boarded up with metallic obstacles, to try to defend them from hearth harm.
