Italy is experiencing widespread protests, with around 1.5 million people participating in a general strike organized by the USB union. Demonstrators are voicing their discontent over high living costs, war, and government repression. The protests saw significant involvement from students and young people across more than 60 cities. While organizers claim participation numbers are even higher, estimates suggest over 200,000 joined the marches. The protests have remained largely peaceful, despite some clashes with police. Activists are demanding government accountability and highlighting issues such as education, housing, and social inequality.
