Gladiator Fights In Colosseum Spark Backlash Among Italians

The Colosseum in Rome will host gladiator reenactments for the first time in centuries, thanks to a $1.5 million partnership with Airbnb and the release of Gladiator II. However, the move has faced strong protests from Italians, who argue that turning the UNESCO heritage site into a commercial spectacle undermines its historical significance. The fights will occur after regular hours to minimize disruption.
