In Petralia Sottana, the ‘Fifth Week of Legality’ was organized for September 7 and 8 to protest regional violence and environmental issues. The event, themed ‘Justice and Peace will meet, for a free Sicily!’, aimed to address the impact of Kalashnikov gunfire in Palermo neighborhoods and recent devastating wildfires in Sicily.

The program featured a procession to City Hall involving local youth and ‘mini-administrations’. Notable participants included Gabriele Galal, Fabrizio Ferrandelli, and Father Giovanni Giannalia, the latter of whom has faced gunfire at his church.
