Demonstrations took place in several Italian cities on 24 October, including Milan, Rome and Turin, amid a reinforced security deployment. Soldiers guarded central Milan, while police deployed extensively following violence during the previous weekend. Reporting described some further incidents of violence.
Assessment: Military site-protection duties should be distinguished from police crowd-control responsibilities. Localised disorder does not demonstrate that all demonstrations were violent or that the military assumed general public-order command.
