A Law enforcement nightmare may be unfolding right now in Italy: the most important criminal organizations have stopped fighting among themselves and formed an alliance.<\/p>\n

According to an annual report by the national anti-mafia agency (DIA), The main Italian \u2018families\u2019 have abandoned the usual turf wars and started collaborating in their bloody trade: drug trafficking, prostitution rings, money laundering, etc.<\/p>\n

\u201cSicily\u2019s Cosa Nostra and the Camorra around Naples are forming alliances at home and abroad, while the \u2018Ndrangheta, based in Calabria in Italy\u2019s southern toe, is increasingly focused on controlling public works projects, the report said.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2018Coexistence has fostered synergies that have progressively become structured\u2019, DIA director Michele Carbone told a press conference. These structures had become \u2018capable of absorbing overlaps, tensions and frictions\u2019, he added.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

All major public construction projects are on the line for infiltration by the mafiosi<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe construction sector represented 38% of administrative anti-mafia measures in 2024, with investigations into 200 building sites for public projects. Carbone said the DIA was ready to block any mafia involvement in the bridge to Sicily.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2018Soon all anti-mafia prevention activities in connection with the construction of the bridge over the Strait (of Messina) will be started\u2019, he said.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

While in many aspects the Mafia bosses stick with the old ways, they are also incorporating technology in their operations, states the report, such as encrypted communications, and are even sending drones to contact incarcerated members.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the same time, the recruitment of marginalized young people to commit crimes in what are called \u201cbaby gangs\u201d is facilitated by spectacular displays of power on social media, the report said.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
