Protesters in Milan have clashed with police as demonstrations took a violent turn.

Thousands were rallying against soaring housing costs and environmental concerns on the first full day of the Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics.

The event turned violent as protesters clashed with police, throwing and firing fireworks.

Organised by grassroots unions and housing-rights groups, the rallies targeted what activists described as an unsustainable city model driven by rising rents and inequality.
