Giorgia Meloni's government claims new police powers, including preventative detention, stopped wider disorder in Italy on Saturday. Police in Milan arrested the accused organiser of last weekend's riots. Officers fired tear gas and water cannon in Rome and Turin. Around 500 demonstrators breached police lines at the 2,000-year-old amphitheatre, carrying Palestinian flags and shouting slogans against the government.

Police in Milan checked thousands of people before the march in a 'decapitation' strategy.

Around 10,000 marched in Milan and roughly 2,500 joined the Rome protest.

Shops in Rome shuttered their storefronts as the crowds passed through.
