Recent murders of two Italian college women have sparked a national outcry. The murders of 22-year-old students Ilaria Sula and Sara Campanella—both killed by men they had previously rejected—have reignited demands for urgent cultural and legal reforms to combat violence against women. The attacks come in the shadow of Giulia Cecchettin’s high-profile 2023 femicide and serves as yet another reminder of the country’s ongoing crisis with gender-based violence. While Italy’s government has proposed legislative changes, some argue they fall short by not addressing the root causes of these acts of violence, including education and prevention. (CBS)
