Italian police said on Sunday they had arrested 12 people, including top officials of the extreme right-wing party Forza Nuova, following clashes in Rome against a government drive to make the COVID-19 'Green Pass' mandatory for all workers.
Draghi introduced the pass - a digital or paper certificate confirming its holder has received at least one vaccine dose, has tested negative or recently recovered from the virus - in the summer to try to prevent infections and encourage people to get vaccinated.
It was initially needed to enter many cultural and leisure venues and its scope has gradually been widened. Last month, the month the government made it compulsory for all workers. Under the green pass system for workers, accepted by unions and employers, any worker who fails to present a valid health certificate from Oct. 15 will be suspended with no pay, but cannot be sacked.Reporting by Elvira Pollina; editing by Barbara LewisSubscribe for our daily curated newsletter to receive the latest exclusive Reuters coverage delivered to your inbox.
