...affermano che vi sono stati arresti negli ultimi due giorni... Mi può spiegare la grammatica di questo frase, particolarmente l'uso di vi sono. Reflexive? No. Direct object? Indirect object? It or them? Mi dispiace. Grazie, James

"vi" in this case is an adverb of place, "avverbio di luogo", meaning "in this or in that place, there". As a reference (maybe too complicated for now, but that you can use in the future): http://www.treccani.it/vocabolario/vi1/ Hope it helps, tano

Vi sono stati = ci sono stati = there have been / there were.
