AI & Policing: Italy’s draft AI decree would let police turn faces into biometric data via cameras in “sensitive” public areas (squares, stadiums, stations) for everyone entering, store it for seven days, and auto-delete unless a crime is linked—while the data watchdog says it clashes with the EU AI Act. Water Crisis: The Po River hits record-low levels in northern Italy, with shallower, algae-covered stretches disrupting agriculture, boats, and rowing clubs, pushing some municipalities to tanker deliveries. Media/Regulation: Italy’s children’s rights watchdog flags an Apple Milan billboard (“Tutto ok, è iPhone”) for “electronic babysitting” concerns, sending it for review by regulators.

International Politics: Italy joins a broad condemnation of Iran’s executions of protesters, urging an immediate halt and detainee releases. Travel/Branding: A new “first Italian supermarket” opens in Glasgow’s southside, showing how Italian food retail keeps expanding as a lifestyle brand.
