More than 300 people march in Turin over rising living costs and bills
More than 300 people marched in Turin against rising living costs, fuel prices and utility bills.
The protest began in Piazza Castello and was organized by the Torino in Piazza movement.
Protesters said rising costs were making it harder to live with dignity, and linked them to public spending they oppose, including support for Israel’s actions in Gaza.
They also objected to spending on what they called the militarization of neighborhoods.
The group said it would demonstrate every Saturday until it receives answers.
The march was expected to pass through central and northeastern Turin before ending near the Monumental Cemetery.

What people are saying
We want to live with dignity, but we cannot because the money goes to fund the genocide of the Palestinian people
Today we are paying the consequences with the high cost of living and high fuel prices
For the general strike, we have to block everything, because the Meloni government must tremble, because the Italian people will send it home
