Fosse Ardeatine: La Russa, the Nazis killed 335 people, a horror. 80 years after the massacre: 'One of the darkest pages in our history, never again such atrocities' "What happened on 24 March 1944 is a horror in the face of which we we can only bow, trusting and working so that such an atrocity can never happen again." Thus the president of the Senate Ignazio LaRussa.  Reproduction reserved © Copyright ANSA.
