In a landmark development, Italy has provided the final nod for a major infrastructure project aimed at connecting Sicily to the Italian mainland with a new bridge. The approval came from a government technical committee, confirming the project's multi-billion-euro budget.

The League party, under the leadership of Deputy Prime Minister and Transport Minister Matteo Salvini, declared the progress on Wednesday. This bridge is expected to enhance connectivity and boost economic activities between Sicily and the rest of Italy.
