Turkish demonstrator sets branches on fire during a protest against a mine project on February 17, 2016, in northern Turkish city of Artvin. Security forces began closing off an area for the mine construction on February 15 evening, and locals reacted by blocking the road with their vehicles and bodies. Trucks later arrived in an attempt to tow what amounted to a total of almost 300 cars. Reports stated that between 2,000-3,000 protesters participated in the demonstration. / AFP / YASIN AKGUL
