Members of Italy's Folgore paratrooper division have been deployed on the streets of Milan, patrolling neighbourhoods, shops and public spaces. Supporters describe the move as protecting citizens, while critics argue that using soldiers for urban security signals a failure of policing and immigration policy. The deployment is drawing strong reactions across the political spectrum in Italy.

Why now: People are reacting to the unusual sight of military paratroopers carrying out civilian policing duties in a major Italian city.
