🚨Italy is shut down today in a massive 24-hour general strike led by grassroots unions USB, CUB, ADL, and SGB. Workers demand an end to Italian arms sales to Israel, sanctions, and justice for Palestine, tying Gaza solidarity to housing, welfare, and workplace safety.
➤ Trains, buses, ports, highways, schools, and shops are halted, with millions on strike.
➤ Over 60 rallies and blockades hit Rome, Milan, Bologna, Naples, Genoa, Turin, Florence, Bari, and Palermo.
➤ Genoa and Livorno ports are blocked, trains in Rome disrupted, Milan’s M4 metro closed, Bologna students walk out.
➤ Unions demand Italy cut all ties with Israel to stop the Gaza genocide.
➤ The strike coincides with the Global Sumud Flotilla, joined by Greta Thunberg, sailing aid to Gaza to break Israel’s siege.
San Diego just approved an $875,000 payout after police shot an unarmed man with three bean bag rounds and then let a K9 attack him.
The man’s name is Marcus Evans. This happened back in October 2024 at his home in South San Diego. He ended up with a broken leg and other serious injuries.
