The fascist squads in Turin attack the labour movement

102
years ago

18 December 1922,

The fascist squads in Turin started attacks on the labour movement. After reaching the power of Mussolini in Italy, he got control of most industrial centres, but he found enormous anti-fascist resistance from Turin by the workers’ movement. In three days, eleven workers were killed.
