flare

Tensions between Athens and Cairo flared up after an Egyptian court ruled in May that St Catherine's - the world's oldest continuously used Christian monastery - lies on state land.

The growth also brought flares — flames burning off excess natural gas — that blazed day and night at wells in the surrounding countryside.

Scenes of jubilation and orange plumes of flare smoke have followed Red Bull driver Verstappen ever since he emerged as a generational talent 10 years ago.

The promoters added: "Signs/flags bigger than A3, flag poles, flares, glass or cans, umbrellas, alcohol, garden furniture, selfie sticks, professional cameras and audio recording equipment will not be permitted inside the event site."

The group accused some demonstrators of launching flares and missiles at the counter protest, and of shouting "vile sexist abuse".
