Thousands attend 'Battle of the Oranges' in Italy
Thousands of people on Sunday attended the annual 'Battle of the Oranges' in the Italian town of Ivrea. The event involves participants, divided into noblemen and commoners, throwing oranges at each other in a reenactment of a rebellion against tyrannical lords who ruled Ivrea in the Middle Ages. Around 500 tonnes of Sicilian oranges are used in the event.
