Demonstrations continue in Italy against the high cost of living, rearmament, and in protest against the Meloni government. The processions today take place in various cities of the country, including Milan and Turin.

In Milan there are a few hundred demonstrators present at the procession, which started from Piazza Leonardo da Vinci, against war, rearmament and high prices of living and against the Meloni government.

The procession in the Lombardy capital was called by "Italia in piazza", which had also organized the protest on 17 October which later degenerated into clashes and devastation.

Participating in the procession were, among others, Young Palestinians, Cambiare Rota, Potere al Popolo and Rifondazione Comunista. Numerous Palestinian flags were present, some tricolor and a banner with the writing: "Repression does not extinguish the revolt, it fuels it".

The route of the procession includes passing through Piazzale Loreto and then via Padova to reach the Martesana park, following a different route than the one initially decided which included the arrival at the Monumental cemetery.

In any case, it was decided that the procession should pass away from the center of Milan, the area where the clashes occurred on 17 and 18 October.

And a demonstration against the high cost of living is also taking place in Turin. The appointment, announced by the Torino in Piazza movement, had Piazza Castello as its meeting point. Also participating was a procession of university students leaving from Palazzo Nuovo, occupied in recent days.
