Italy gets new coalition as lawyers target Salvini
Italy's new populist-centre left government has been appointed amid legal moves against the ousted right-wing Interior Minister, Matteo Salvini.
Prosecutors launched a libel suit against Mr Salvini on behalf of migrant rescuer Carola Rackete. She ignored Mr Salvini's order to keep her charity ship out of Italian waters.
And a mayor who defied Mr Salvini by sheltering migrants in the southern town of Riace saw his ban lifted.
An independent has replaced Mr Salvini.
A hammer blow for extremists everywhere. Italy steps out of the darkness.
