Two churches in the Greek town of Vrontados were lit up on Saturday night, as they fired streams of rockets at each other as part of an Orthodox Easter tradition.
Throughout the annual 'rocket war', Easter mass continues inside the churches on the island of Chios.
The spectacle that dates back to the 1800s - when Greece was ruled by the Ottoman empire - but now rockets are used instead of cannons.
Parts of the local area are boarded up with metal barriers, to try and protect them from fire damage.
