High tension in Turin during the demonstration for the Askatasuna social centre , which was evicted in recent weeks.

Molotov cocktails, flares, and fireworks were thrown by protesters, and tear gas was fired in response by the police, who formed a tight cordon blocking their path.

Autonomous protesters and anarchists, some with their faces covered, were in action on Corso Regina Margherita. The police then began advancing, both with personnel and a water cannon, toward the opposing groups, attempting to force them back. Several dumpsters were set on fire.

Most of the thousands of people who marched on Saturday afternoon through Askatasuna dispersed after following the pre-established route without incident.
