Another Mishap on Epiphany Day - Golden Cross Lost in Ayia Napa

During the Epiphany celebrations in Ayia Napa, an unexpected incident occurred with the golden cross thrown into the sea. The cross was initially lost, forcing the Metropolitan to throw a wooden cross. However, the golden cross was found a short time later. Participation from the faithful was particularly high, with over 30 people diving into the water to catch the cross, including two eight-year-old children and a woman.
