A province in the Philippines held bloody crucifixions to uphold the local Good Friday tradition despite the objection of the Catholic Church.
The religious tradition saw eight people nailed to wooden crosses wearing thorny crowns of twigs as they reenacted the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on Good Friday (April 7, 2023), according to the Nextshark website.
The crucifixions, which were held in San Pedro Cutud, Pampanga, are the province's first display of religious devotion after a three-year pause due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
