Here's is an article by Reuters about the celebration of the Holy Fire ceremony during the pandemic. I've never heard of the Holy Fire ceremony until now, very interesting. By the way, Orthodox Christians celebrate Easter (also called Pascha, that is Passover) a week later than us due to their use of the Julian calendar (we use the Gregorian calendar).


If you want to learn more about the Holy Fire ceremony, you can check out the article by Sepulchre-Candles, which explains it.
