ABOARD THE STEVE IRWIN — Tuna fishermen battled environmentalists on the Mediterranean, hurling heavy links of chain at them as the environmentalists attempted to disrupt illegal tuna fishing under the no-fly zone north of Libya on Saturday.

The fishermen also attempted to lay a rope in front of the activists’ boat, the Steve Irwin — owned by the U.S.-based Sea Shepherd Conservation Society — hoping to disable it.

Environmentalists responded with fire hoses and stink bombs.
