German authorities urge crackdown on illegal firework bombs following five fatalities on New Year’s Eve

Credited from: THEGUARDIAN

  • German officials are calling for stricter regulations on illegally imported firework bombs after tragic incidents on New Year's Eve resulted in five fatalities.
  • Many of the victims were young men who suffered serious injuries, including burns and hearing damage, from the use of illegal pyrotechnics.
  • Authorities report that these dangerous spherical explosives, known as Kugelbomben, are primarily sourced from Poland and the Czech Republic.
  • There are growing calls for a complete ban on private fireworks, as the current regulations are viewed as insufficient to prevent such tragedies.
  • In Berlin, multiple incidents of firework bombs caused severe damage to properties and injuries to bystanders, prompting demands for enhanced border checks on pyrotechnic imports.
