Article Synopsis
- Easter is the most significant holiday for the Greek Church, filled with rich traditions and rituals but increasingly associated with dangerous fireworks during festivities.
- The use of homemade rockets and illegal fireworks has escalated, particularly in the Aegean islands, leading to a so-called "rocket war."
- This study highlights the severe injuries and hospitalizations caused by fireworks at Easter, affecting areas like the face and upper body, often resulting in serious burns and loss of limbs.
