VATICAN-ITALY-SECURITY

Policemen patrol at St Peter's square on February 19, 2015 at the Vatican. Security at the Vatican and across Italy has been stepped up because of a perceived heightened risk of attacks by Islamist militants, officials said on February 18, 2015. A day after the Italian cabinet approved new security measures because of fears of a terrorist spillover from the chaos engulfing Libya, the head of the Vatican's Swiss Guard confirmed additional precautions had been taken to ensure the safety of Pope Francis.
