Environmental activists and enthusiasts gathered by the shoreline in southern Lebanon to release 16 baby sea turtles into the Mediterranean Sea on Saturday. The activists released the tiny loggerhead turtles at an environmental reserve in the town of Mansouri, south of the port city of Tyre. This year, however, the number of people celebrating the turtles is limited because of the fighting along the Lebanon-Israel border. (AP video shot by: Mohamad Zanaty)
