The Trieste riots, traditionally called the Revolt of the flag (Italian: Rivolta della bandiera) of November 1953, were pro-Italian riots harshly repressed by the Venezia Giulia Police Force (often called the "Civil Police") under the command of the Allied Military Government (AMG), the Anglo-American allied military administration force headed by British General John Winterton.
