Crowds gathered on Prague's Charles Bridge to celebrate the end of the Czech Republic's coronavirus crisis with a group dinner along a gigantic table set up on the historic landmark, AFP reported.

The EU member of 10.7 million people has by now eased most of the anti-virus measures it introduced early on — thanks to which it has fared relatively well, registering fewer than 12,000 coronavirus cases and under 350 deaths.

On the 14th-century bridge, merrymakers munched on snacks and sipped drinks they brought from home, sharing their fare with others at the table spanning 500 metres (a third of a mile).
