The fire brigade were called out to a whopping 120 fires across Cyprus on Easter Saturday night.

A large proportion of the 120 fires were linked to the Easter “lambradjia” bonfire tradition, while the fire brigade were also called out to attend a further 18 non-fire incidents.

They said many of their interventions helped avoid “serious damage” to property and infrastructure.
