April 19 (UPI) -- The mayor of Naples said a nuclear-powered U.S. submarine involved in attacks on Syrian targets last week should not have traveled through waters near the Italian city weeks before.
Mayor Luigi de Magistris lodged a complaint with Rear Adm. Arturo Faraone, head of the city's port authority, on Monday, saying the USS John Warner was not welcome in Naples waters because the the city has a ban on nuclear-powered vessels or ones that can fire nuclear weapons.
