Italian resistance fighter who fought against Mussolini?

Answer 1

Mario Musolesi, who was known as "Il Lupo" (the wolf), lead the Stella Rosa (red star) resistance. This group was the target of the massacre at Monte Sole or Marzabatto. Is that the Answer? There were others, which I will try to list.

Answer 2

The Italian Resistance Fighters were called Resistenza. They were an open and obvious group of people (and children) who fought against the Nazi Germans and Benito Mussolini. They were very good at what they did and rejoiced greatly once the Allied Forces were victorious over the Nazis. Sadly, the Nazis killed thousands of Resistenza Italians.

This excerpt came from Wikipedia under the heading of Italian resistance movement:

"More than 300,000 armed fighters (among them 35,000 women) took part in the fighting forces. The Italian resistance movement included elements in the country as well as among Italian armed forces abroad. Participants in the 1944-1945 strike movement in the factories of Turin, Milan, and other industrial cities are considered to be a part of the Italian resistance movement as well; many of the strikers were later deported to German concentration camps as a result of their "sabotage" of the war effort. Italian soldiers who refused to cooperate with the German armed forces (Wehrmacht) after the Armistice are considered as Italian resistance fighters."

I suggest you read about the resistance there and look at the references below in that section. When I did a lot of research on the resistance movement there was a lot of good information there and other websites. See the link below.
