On October 30, tens of thousands of workers and students demonstrated across Italy on a day of general strike called by the trade union Unione Sindicale di Base (USB). They demand more funding for education and protest the rising cost of living and rearmament. Dockers who were striking as part of a wider action against the transport of weapons happening in different countries also joined the protest. Demonstrators set up a camp near the Colosseum in Rome and staged street performances. They blocked roads in Bologna and Milan. Reports of tensions came from Rome and Turin. The protests follow similar movements elsewhere in Europe and come after weeks of unrest in Italy. Students organized much of it. Farmers and truck drivers, hit by rising fuel prices and costs, especially in the south, also took part. On October 17 and 18, protesters clashed with riot police in Milan, and looting broke out. The government then planned wider law enforcement measures. Authorities stayed on high alert on October 30. Some tensions were reported in Rome and Turin.
