Italy sends hundreds of soldiers to Milan for protest, one of many planned across Europe
Italy has deployed soldiers to Milan as the city braces for fresh protests following last week's riots
What the coverage shows
Both outlets frame the story as a roundup of protests across Europe, but Newsweek keeps the focus on the map and the wider continental spread, while The Independent narrows in on Italy and Milan. Newsweek’s extract is the only one that mentions younger people being at the forefront in a dozen countries, while The Independent is the only outlet to foreground soldiers being sent to Milan and last week’s riots.
