Sky TG24 reported that the high fuel prices had caused protests among truck drivers, who threatened to halt the country. The government had called a round table meeting for October 27 at the Ministry of Transport. According to the broadcaster, autonomous blockades had already begun in Puglia, while demonstrations organized by committees and independent groups had also started in Calabria, Sicily, and Basilicata. In some regions, it added, there was growing concern about the depletion of fuel at various service stations, where long queues were being reported. #carburanti #autotrasportatori #proteste (translated)
