The municipality of Mols blasted the event after photos emerged showing residents were without masks.

“We deeply regret that after looking at several photos, we have to conclude that this goes much further than an error,” the municipality of Mols said of the in a statement to the Guardian.

“Rather, it is a completely irresponsible event. We would never have approved this,” the municipality said.

On this occasion, the crane used to lift the tree was a Fassi F660RA.2.26 xhe-dynamic with an L426 jib, a popular model with a maximum lifting capacity of 56.27 tm and a hydraulic reach of 28.35 m (Photo courtesy ©Belga/Eric Lalmand).
