Protest in Milan

A general strike took place in about 70 Italian cities on Monday, September 22, with thousands of protesters demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and confirming support for the Global Sumud flotilla, which is trying to deliver aid to the Palestinian people.

In Milan, the protest for Gaza that gathered over ten thousand people in the square ended with clashes and tensions inside and outside the Central Station, while it is reported that around 60 police officers have been injured and at least 10 protesters have been arrested so far.

After several hours of marching, students, teachers, family members, and activists headed to the main lobby of the station. Here, the situation spiraled out of control and many students, residents, and professors fled.

Corriere della Sera reports that a group of protesters dressed in black attempted to enter the train station: the entrance was immediately closed by security forces with strong cordons. This was followed by pushing, throwing of smoke bombs and minor clashes. A violent group used street signs and trash cans to break the windows and doors of the station entrance.

The police reacted immediately, forcing the protesters to retreat. The students, hundreds of them, initially tried to enter the metro station, but were blocked by officers with batons on the escalators. Many smoke bombs were thrown and there were attempts to break the police cordon. Some protesters threw objects and pieces of scaffolding at the police who wanted to hinder them, and then the entrance doors to the station were closed.

Dozens of people were forced to take shelter in cafes or cover their faces with scarves or T-shirts because of the smoke.

In a few minutes, public order turned to chaos. “No, this is not how a protest is done,” some peaceful protesters shouted, while others tried to calm the more agitated. Tensions erupted a few hours after the protest, which until then had been regularly attended by students and teachers, with slogans and banners against the war.

As a result of the protest, many train journeys were cancelled and there were delays of up to 120 minutes at Milan Central Station.

Meanwhile, classes at all levels were disrupted due to teachers or support staff participating in the strike. Kindergartens and preschools also experienced closures or reduced hours.
