After being the first European country to pass a law backing an indoor ban on smoking in public places in 2003, Italy's capital Milan has now banned smoking in many outdoor places.
The fashion and financial capital has become the first city to ban smoking within a 10m distance of other people at bus stops, parks, stadiums, and even cemeteries.
The extensive outdoor ban is part of measures to improve air quality and combat climate change. Cigarette smoke reportedly accounts for 8% of the city's PM10 levels.
