During the demonstration, in which numerous representatives of youth organizations and pro-Palestinian movements participated, slogans were raised against the government of Giorgia Meloni and calls were made to reject the government's project to reform the justice system in the referendum scheduled for March 22 and 23.
Its most important element is the separation of the careers of judges and prosecutors so that they cannot change these functions. The center-left opposition appealed to vote against the reform, arguing that it would lead to greater political control over the justice system.
The protesters carried the Hezbollah flag
Police cameras recorded the moment of burning photos of Prime Minister Meloni and Justice Minister Nordio. The perpetrators have been identified and will be charged with insulting public institutions.

During the demonstration in the Eternal City, slogans against judicial reform were accompanied by a protest against the war in the Middle East. The media noted that the flag of pro-Iranian Hezbollah appeared among the banners carried.
The demonstration took place two weeks after the start of the armed operation of the US and Israel against Iran, which is responding with attacks on Middle Eastern countries, including the Persian Gulf. The protest participants recalled the victims of the airstrike on a school in the Iranian city of Minab, where over 150 people, mainly children, died.
