Upper-secondary students in towns east of Naples left their classrooms to join street demonstrations in solidarity with truck drivers protesting expensive fuel and the rising cost of living.
According to Metropolis Web, the mobilization involved students in Terzigno, Poggiomarino, Palma Campania and Ottaviano. The students expressed support for hauliers and linked that support to broader concerns about prices, household finances and political responses.
In Terzigno, students met Mayor Salvatore Carillo during the demonstration. They carried a banner reading "Il silenzio rende complici."
Shopkeepers also joined the mobilization in Poggiomarino and Palma Campania, widening a protest that began with hauliers to include students and local businesses.
Attendance figures for the demonstrations were not reliably reported, and details of the events remain based on the local-press account without independent corroboration.
