02.06.2025 โ‡ข The day eruption and arrest closed violent weekend
โŒจPoland's presidential election delivered sovereignist Karol Nawrocki with 50.89% against moderate Trzaskowski, shifting European dynamics as Italian media noted the country's isolation among major powers. President Mattarella used Republic Day ceremonies to reinforce his stance on Gaza, declaring it "inhuman to reduce a people to hunger" while emphasizing the 1946 referendum chose "peace and freedom."

Mount Etna's major eruption collapsed part of the southeast crater, creating kilometer-high columns and flight alerts, though Catania's mayor reported no critical issues. The Bologna double homicide concluded when police arrested the roommate at Barcelona airport - a 48-year-old man who had been living intermittently with victims Luca Monaldi and Luca Gombi since October.

A professor who made threatening social media posts about Meloni's daughter attempted suicide with pills and alcohol, telling ANSA he "made a mistake but was lynched" by public reaction. Sinner dominated Roland Garros, defeating Rublev 6-1, 6-3, 6-4 to reach quarterfinals. Ukraine-Russia peace talks in Istanbul lasted under two hours, with Moscow demanding full Ukrainian withdrawal as ceasefire conditions.

04:04โ‡ขPoland's Razor-Thin Presidential Vote Shakes Europe

โŒจThe newspapers report on a close Polish presidential election creating uncertainty across Europe, with moderate Trzaskowski claiming victory over sovereignist Nawrocki despite razor-thin margins likely triggering recounts and legal challenges (HuffPost Italia, Il Sole 24 Ore). HuffPost Italia notes this leaves Italy as "the Trumpian island among Europe's big powers" while Brussels, Paris, Berlin and Kiev await final results. Meanwhile, Ukraine's massive drone strike claiming 40 Russian bomber destructions prompts escalating rhetoric, with La Repubblica describing it as Moscow's "Pearl Harbor" and Sky TG24 reporting Putin has "all options on the table" for retaliation, while talks in Turkey proceed with Rubio-Lavrov dialogue. Italian President Mattarella continues his strong Gaza stance, with ANSA reporting his declaration that starvation there is "inhuman" and not security, demanding Israel open the Strip for Palestinian homeland rights.
