A teenager injured by fireworks in Chania has had the fingers on his right hand amputated.

No matter how much the police, health workers and the media admonish, the same thing happens every year: young people suffer from explosive pyrotechnics. Literally on the eve of Easter Greek law enforcement agencies released a social video about how dangerous firecrackers and other pyrotechnics can be. Some become disabled, and others even die.
