What is happening

What the sources report

Italy is in the grip of strikes on Friday 30/10, with protests in more than 50 cities against high prices, low wages and rising arms spending.[1]

The mobilisations, within the framework of the nationwide strike called by the independent union USB, involve workers, pupils, students and pensioners.[1]

The demonstrators demand that funds be redirected from armament programmes to social policy, with emphasis on education and public health.[2]

Transport Minister Matteo Salvini requisitioned workers in public transport, with a decision signed on 27 October that postponed the strike to an indefinite date.[3]

USB responded that the mobilisation is not suspended and described the decision as illegal.[3]

Where they differ

Newsit writes that USB declared a 24-hour general strike.[3]

Euronews Greek writes about a new general strike wave in dozens of cities.[4]

INK, citing ANSA, reports that train traffic was largely running normally in the morning, while Euronews Greek writes that reports refer to partially normal transport operations.[4][1]
