According to organizers, approximately 50,000 people demonstrated in Milan, where “masked demonstrators threw bottles and stones at police officers, smashed the windows of the Milan train station, and set off smoke bombs.”
The violence resulted in 60 police officers being injured, with 23 requiring hospitalization. Police temporarily closed the station before restoring order after about two hours.
Conservative Italian newspapers, such as Il Giornale, have come out harshly against the protests.
“They called it a ‘strike in solidarity with Palestine,’ but it was a day of premeditated guerrilla warfare. From Milan to Rome, from Bologna to Naples, thousands of common criminals, organized by the far left and painted as pacifists, devastated streets, attacked police officers, blocked trains, highways, and ring roads. If these are the spokespeople in Europe for a ‘free Palestine,’ best wishes and good luck to the Palestinians,” read an editorial from the paper.
