(ANSA) - ROME, MAY 28 - Memory is the root of the future,
President Sergio Mattarella said Sunday on the 49th anniversary
of the Piazza della Loggia far-right militant bombing in Brescia
that killed eight people and hurt another 102 on May 28, 1974.
"Eight people killed. Over 100 wounded. The city of Brescia
overwhelmed. The Republic injured. So much innocent blood was
spilled on the morning of May 28 1974 in Piazza della Loggia by
the strategists of terror and their pitiless executors to
destabilize democracy, to attack the State," said the head of
State in his message for the commemoration.
"The subversive plans of neofascist terrorism were combatted and
thwarted, with faith for Constitutional principles". (ANSA).
