Italy's new ruling coalition has won a crucial trust vote in the upper chamber of parliament.

The alliance of the anti-establishment 5-Star Movement (M5S) and the right-wing League party will now seek support in the lower house where it has a majority. 

A win there will empower the government, led by political unknown Giuseppe Conte, to carry out its anti-immigration agenda.

Al Jazeera's Sonia Gallego reports from Rome.
