Another casualty of Israel’s war in Lebanon: Efforts to save endangered turtles

For years, the hatching of sea turtles has attracted curious viewers from all over Lebanon, but on Sept. 8, 2024, only a handful made it to the Mansouri Beach in Tyre, despite attacks by Israel on the southern border.

Lebanese volunteers are anxious to get back to sea turtle conservation on southern beaches that were off-limits to civilians when fighting escalated between Israel and Hezbollah.
