Clashes and tensions in Vicenza during the procession organized by the social centers to protest against the presence of Israeli operators at the VicenzaOro Fair.
The procession started mid-morning with around 500 participants, but deviated from the established route trying to get closer to the fairgrounds.
During the attempt there was contact with the police, in riot gear, who pushed the procession back with a charge.
The protesters responded with smoke bombs and firecrackers, while the police used water cannons.
At least four officers were injured.
