Kastellia Phokidas: Hierosylai burned icons and the crucified one outside the church (PHOTO-VIDEO)translated

November 14, 2026 · 1 min read

A violent and harrowing incident took place today outside the church of Saint John in Kastellia Phokidas. The hierosylai burned all the icons from the church, lowered the crucifix with the crucified one, the curtains, and placed them in the center, then set them on fire.

The chapel was almost completely destroyed.

“Only a psychologically ill person would do this…” said to LamiaReport the protopresbyter and parish priest Konstantinos Kanzos.
