A bomb was let off Tuesday night outside the historic Sorbillo pizzeria in the heart of the southern Italian city, five years after the premises were torched.

“It’s an attack on rebirth and legality,” said owner Gino Sorbillo.

There was no damage to people or property other than scorching to the entrance.


Interior Minister Matteo Salvini said Wednesday he would visit Naples “in the next 48 hours” after eight bombs exploded there in the last week, the last damaging the entrance to the Sorbillo pizzeria.

Salvini said the 2019 budget included the hiring of 100 more police in Naples.

“In this budget there is 400 million euros for hiring police and I’m happy to have done in six months what others didn’t do in years”, he said.
