ROME (ITALPRESS) – “What happened on March 24, eighty-one years ago represents one of the most lacerating wounds inflicted on Rome and all of Italy. The massacre of the Fosse Ardeatine, perpetrated by the occupying Nazi troops as an action of retaliation for the partisan attack on Via Rasella, is one of the most painful pages of national history and it is the primary task of the institutions, at every level, to recount what happened and to transmit in particular to the younger generations the memory of those events. On this day, we pay tribute to the 335 victims of that unspeakable massacre and renew our commitment to preserve and protect the values of freedom and democracy on which our Republic is founded.” Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said in a note.
