Italy Travel Warning
This Travel Warning is issued
on March 21, 2006 to alert
Americans to ongoing security concerns in Italy . Demonstrations are planned in various
parts of the country in anticipation of the upcoming Italian Parliamentary elections April
9 and 10, and municipal elections in May. This Public Announcement will expire on June 19,
2006.
Demonstrations may be large, but even peaceful
demonstrations have the potential to escalate into violence. Some of the demonstrations
may be announced; others may be spontaneous. On March 11, demonstrations by "No
Global" and anarchist groups in Milan became violent, resulting in broken windows and
streets blockages; fifteen police officers were injured and 40-45 individuals were
arrested. The Department of State advises U.S. citizens traveling or residing in Italy to
avoid areas where crowds are expected to gather, take common sense precautions, and
closely follow media reports.
