[Video] Frecce Tricolori scramble over Rome to celebrate Liberation Day in Italy

Share

Every year 25th April is celebrated as the Liberation Day in Italy. Today’s 75th birthday marks the end of the Mussolini regime after the end of the Second World War in 1945.

The day commemorates the people who laid down their lives fighting the fascist leader. It was in 1943 that the Italian Resistance Movement gathered steam.

Frecce Tricolori, the aerobatic demonstration team of the Italian Air Force, today scrambled to fly over a deserted Rome as the city (country) has been placed in lock-down.

Working for 25 years in the aviation industry, I changed my career and became a firefighter/EMT in 2021. I like to spend my free time with my two sons, girlfriend, family and friends. I love to travel, wine and dine and support my favourite football squad KV Mechelen. Once an Ironman 70.3 finisher and dreaming of completing a full distance.
