Italian security agencies have “foiled a series of cyberattacks” of “Russian origin,” Italy’s foreign secretary says, just days before the country is set to host the Winter Olympic Games. The attacks, which Russia is believed to have also carried out in 2018 and 2024, come after Russia was banned from competing over doping infractions and its war in Ukraine. Read more from @dw

today we at #FattoQuotidiano run a new article on our scoop on #ICE at the #OlympicParalympicGames.
All hell broke loose and our Minister of Interior met the US ambassador in Rome. Is #Meloni government telling us the whole truth on #ICE?
[Italian]
After my scoop on #ICE officers at the #OlympicsParalympicsGames #Milan for my newspaper #FattoQuotidiano, #X has drastically limited the visibility of my contents as never before.
Such level of censorship on #X is a scandal, #XSupport!
My colleague Tommaso Rodano reconstructs #Meloni govt's denials/confirmations regarding #ICE at the #OlympicsParalympics #Milan and how our Foreign Minister #Tajani declared that #ICE are not like the #SS

@rbreich has called #ICE "America's #Gestapo"
I discovered the role of #ICE in the security machine of major global sporting events thanks to the #WikiLeaks cables, and when I asked #ICE about their presence at the #OlympicsParalympics #MilanoCortina2026 #ICE confirmed it
After we revealed #ICE will be at the #OlympicsParalympics #Milan, #Meloni govt denied-admitted
To my colleagues Vincenzo Bisbiglia and Giacomo Salvini, the president of the Italian Senate has stated that our govt cannot object to who #Trump sends to Italy

ICE will be present at the Winter Olympics in Milan — and we don't just mean the stuff you can skate on. @espn explains what they'll be doing there, and the initial reaction from Italian lawmakers. "This is a militia that kills, a militia that enters into the homes of people, signing their own permission slips. It is clear they are not welcome in Milan, without a doubt," said Milan Mayor Giuseppe Sala.

thank you to #AllanKaval, journalist at the French daily #LeMonde, for being the only media in the world which quoted my scoop on #ICE for #FattoQuotidiano at #OlympicGames in #Milan with integrity explaining I discovered #ICE role in the #WikiLeaks cables and then asked Qs to #ICE
