Mass protests sweep Italy
Tens of thousands of people, mostly workers and students, took part in protests in more than 40 Italian cities during a 24-hour general strike called by the Union of Basic Trade Unions. Protesters demanded higher wages and stronger public services, and demonstrated against the rising cost of living and increased military spending. In Genoa, around 15,000 people joined a march at the port to oppose the use of ports to ship weapons. The protests were largely peaceful, though police used water cannons in Turin to disperse students and activists who approached the security cordon around city hall.
