Police clashed with protesters in Milan as demonstrations against rising living costs and poor public services entered a second day of unrest. According to Reuters, officers deployed tear gas and water cannons after some demonstrators threw stones, damaged shopfronts and set bins on fire near the city centre. More than 60 people were reportedly taken to a police station for checks, following arrests during earlier demonstrations in several northern Italian cities. The unrest reflects wider public frustration over economic pressures and access to services. Authorities are facing questions about public order as protests spread across parts of Europe, including neighbouring France.
