It seems that a number of members of Blocco studentesco, the youth group of the autonomist nationalist group Cassa Pound, were attacked by militant anti-fascists in Rome this week.

"Nine Blocco militants have ended up in hospital, six were seriously injured. Among them, the National President of Blocco Studentesco and candidate for the election, Fransceco Polacchi. He is currently under observation in hospital with a fractured forearm and two head injuries."

Any reports from the anti-fascist side?

I've been unable to find any websites from Rome antifa or student left groups.

Edit - Here is a google translated link to a article about the attack in La Repubblica, a mainstream daily newspaper:
