The government has introduced new regulations regarding the sale and use of pyrotechnics. These include a requirement that fireworks and related products may only be sold in specialized stores.

This regulation restricts access to pyrotechnics in order to minimize potential risks. The changes will take effect after 10:00 PM to ensure nighttime peace.
