Clashes between protesters and police in Milan, Italy, turned violent over the weekend, with thousands taking to the streets to protest against rising living costs, fuel prices, and low wages. Demonstrations turned into riots, with protesters throwing stones, fireworks, and Molotov cocktails at police, who responded with tear gas and water cannons.

Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni condemned the violence, stating that protesting is a right, but setting cities on fire is not.
