Dialogue / Ad Lib
What it basically means is that the dialogue for this part "si comunica che le forze della V Armata sono nei pressi di Velletri..." has not been written and will need to be improvised on the set or later on when recording the audio track insert in post production.

I've heard recordings of old-time radio broadcasts that begin with "This just in:".
"This just in! Hog and Pig Report...down 2%...the U.S. swine industry continued on its course of retraction in the last months of the year. Swine inventories in nearly all..."

The line, "the announcement is accompanied by shouts of joy" indicates that the information is new, at least to the listeners.
