A group of Italian students waved a Palestinian flag from the Leaning Tower of Pisa on Friday.

    The raid was carried out by by some fifteen students belonging to 'antagonist' anticapitalist movements who broke into the Tower of Pisa, overcoming controls, and displayed a giant Palestine flag from the world's most famous bell tower.

    They also lit a couple of smoke bombs before descending. No damage was reported.
