Protests by hauliers against fuel price increases are spreading in various parts of Italy.
And
there is also one injured
.
A hauler who was demonstrating along the SS 16 in the Foggia area was hit with a knife, in a minor way in the side, by a motorist.
The incident happened in the morning near the junction for Torremaggiore.
According to some witnesses, the attacker, a 50-year-old man, was on board his car and at the sight of the demonstrators he would not have slowed down the race, on the contrary he would have backtracked running the risk of hitting them.
At that point he would have gotten out of the car and armed with a knife wounded one of those present in the side.
The "mobile blocks" of road hauliers also
continue
along the Campania motorway sections .
A few dozen trucks are carrying out blocks near the Naples Nord barriers along the A1 Milan-Naples and on the A30 Caserta-Salerno, at the Mercato San Severino barrier (Salerno).
This morning the trucks had blocked the Caianello tollbooth along the Caserta section of the A1, during the night the barrier of North Naples, which falls within the municipality of Marcianise (Caserta).
Many inconveniences for motorists.
In Calabria, too, about
thirty road hauliers carried out a sit-in near the Gioia Tauro motorway junction.
A similar initiative, with another fifteen participants, was also organized at the Rosarno junction from where the two groups will join to reach the city of Palmi together.
The participants do not exclude, even after the stalemate at the conclusion of the meeting that the representatives of the category had yesterday with the Deputy Minister of Infrastructure and Sustainable Mobility Teresa Bellanova, to escalate the protest by blocking the supply of goods and services in all over the country.
The protest also arrives on the state road 613, the Lecce-Brindisi
.
The six-truck drivers on which a banner recalling the ongoing protest had been posted, slowly traveled a stretch of road of about 10 km northwards, creating traffic slowdowns, and then stopped inside an area of service at km 26.
Even the
San Vitale port of Ravenna
is blocked from dawn by truckers in protest against the expensive fuel and the government's anti-Covid measures, including the Green pass.
The protest follows the mobilization of drivers also underway in other parts of the country, such as Palermo and Caltanissetta.
Around 9 o'clock a passage was opened for the transit of vehicles, but long queues formed in the arteries of the area.
At 9.40 the Via Classicana was reopened, but the garrison remains near the port area.
