Anti-terrorism police in Northern Italy have siezed a ‘combat ready’ missile, sophisticated weapons and neo-nazi propaganda during raids on far-right extremist groups. 

The raids were led by Digos, the Turin special police force and were part of an investigation into Italian far-right help for Russian-backed separatist forces in Eastern Ukraine.

Three people were arrested including Fabio Del Bergiolo an Italian ex-customs officer and far-right Forza Nuova party activist.
