"Italian Outrage: Hundreds Give Fascist Salute at Rome Rally"

Hundreds of people giving a fascist salute at a rally in Rome has sparked outrage in Italy, prompting calls for the country’s far-right leader, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, to take action. The event commemorated the killing of three neo-fascist youths in 1978, and a video of the salute has circulated online, drawing widespread condemnation. While the use of fascist symbolism is banned in Italy, the rally was held in front of the former headquarters of a post-war neo-fascist party, and the lack of police intervention has led to criticism from opposition lawmakers. Meloni, who leads the right-wing government, has yet to publicly comment on the video, but is facing pressure to disband neo-fascist organizations.
