Crotone and Reggio Calabria airports out of fuel as trucker protests continue
ENAV reported that Crotone and Reggio Calabria airports are out of jet fuel due to truckers' strikes over rising gas prices. Pilots are advised to refuel at departure or previous airports. Protests have caused supply shortages and empty supermarket shelves, particularly in southern Italy. The Sicilian Hauliers' Committee suspended its strike after government aid was announced, but truckers in Calabria plan to continue protests until a meeting on October 27. Eleven trucking associations urged the Interior Minister to lift roadblocks, stating that the government's dialogue and commitments should alleviate the situation.
