Trains halted, stations closed. The country is in shock over the night-time sabotage. Meloni promises retribution for the terrorists.
Italy, caught up in the Olympic celebration, was suddenly faced with the threat of terror overnight. The night after the opening ceremony, unknown saboteurs struck the railways, throwing thousands of passengers into chaos.
The scene of the incident resembles a thriller: arson, severed cables, a planted explosive device. All carried out simultaneously in three different cities. Bologna’s central station, a hub for high-speed trains from across Europe, was urgently evacuated and shut down.
Who did this? The investigation is still silent, but alarming theories are already circulating in the press. All signs point to anarchists – following the example of those who terrorized France during the previous Olympics. Their goal is not murder, but panic, financial damage, and a blow to the country’s image on the international stage.
Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni did not mince words, issuing a sharp rebuke to the organizers. Now all hope rests with the security services, who must find the criminals before they strike again. The Olympic competitions are underway, but security has become Italy’s most critical race.
