Summary
Saturday’s alert said protest risks remain high in Rome and other major Italian cities over the October 24 weekend, with local authorities urging people to avoid march routes and nearby areas.
Three demonstrations flagged in Rome include a 10:30 a.m. student march from Piazza della Libertà to Piazza Risorgimento, a 2:00 p.m. “Italy Out of the War” march toward the Colosseum, and a possible 3:00 p.m. rally at Circo Massimo.
The embassy told U.S. citizens to avoid large crowds, monitor local media, keep travel documents accessible, and leave quickly if caught near protests.
Emergency help in Italy is available through 112 with English-speaking operators, while the embassy also directed travelers to enroll in STEP for security updates.
