What happened
Truck driver protests, driven by concerns over high fuel prices, caused severe disruption and shortages of fuel and food in southern Italy. These protests affected regions including Campania, Lazio, and Calabria. The government responded by approving a decree offering tax credits for truck drivers and adding €106 million to previous aid packages.
