Rome has been locked down as violent clashes erupted between Italian police and pro-Palestinian protesters on the eve of the first anniversary of the October 7 Palestinian terrorist massacres against Israelis. Thousands of protesters took to the streets, defying a ban on such demonstrations. The police used tear gas, water cannons, and batons to disperse the crowds, who fought back. The protests are part of a larger wave of demonstrations happening in major European cities and around the globe, calling for a ceasefire. Hamas supporters in Europe are growing bolder as the anniversary nears.
