Activists in Venice are planning to disrupt the visit of US ambassador Tilman Fertitta, who intends to dock his luxury superyacht in the city during a cruise celebrating US-Italy ties and the 250th anniversary of US independence. The protesters, who previously disrupted Jeff Bezos’s wedding, are concerned that the yacht’s presence will obstruct views of the Festa del Redentore fireworks and highlight issues of inequality and overdevelopment. They oppose the yacht's docking in central Venice, citing safety concerns and resentment over perceived arrogance and disregard for local residents.
