Three [Latin] Masses Banned Overnight in Naples Archdioceses

On 23 September, a group of 250 (!) signatories presented a petition to the Archdiocese of Naples to lift the ban on all diocesan Roman Masses, reports GazzettaDelSud.it (15 October).
The Archbishop of Naples, Domenico Battaglia, was belatedly included in the list of new cardinals created on 7 December.
The suppression of the Mass came suddenly, like a blitzkrieg, with a decree of 10 May. Until then, there had been three diocesan Masses in the Roman rite in the Archdiocese of Naples, one of which had been celebrated for 20 years.
The only remaining Mass is celebrated by the Institute of Christ the King.
The petition (video here) has so far been unsuccessful.
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
