Ghent (Eurotoday newspaper): On New Year’s Eve in Ghent, firebombs and fireworks caused chaos, injuring four, including three police officers. Ten were taken into custody.
On New Year’s Eve in Ghent, there were some serious problems in a few places. At Van Beverenplein and Baudelopark, people threw firebombs and shot fireworks at others. Four people got injuries, including three police officers.
What measures are being taken to address fireworks violence in Ghent?
The police identified 116 individuals, with 10 taken into custody and one arrested. When midnight hit, a big crowd gathered at Portus Ganda for the fireworks show, but some young people aimed fireworks at the audience. Fireworks were also directed at people and officers at Sint-Jorisbrug, resulting in one person being arrested for these actions. They will share more details later about reports related to fireworks use.
Ghent is facing problems with fireworks and violence during celebrations. To improve safety, the police are increasing their presence in busy areas and educating people about the risks of illegal fireworks. They are also monitoring gatherings to prevent trouble. However, many locals believe more needs to be done to keep events safe and enjoyable for everyone. The city is working on better plans for future celebrations.

Looks like Ghent really knows how to ring in the New Year—nothing says “celebration” like a few firebombs and a police parade! 🎆🧨 Let’s just hope next year’s resolution includes a bit less pyrotechnic enthusiasm and a lot more common sense, eh? 😂
