ITALY-SEA-REFUGEES-IMMIGRATION

The Italian military ship "Chimera" arrives on June 30, 2014 in the port of Pozzallo, Sicily, with around 350 would be immigrants onboard a day after a rescue operation off the coast of Sicily. Anger erupted in Italy today over the deaths at sea of 30 migrants, as Rome stood accused of worsening a years-long crisis which has seen 5,000 desperate refugees rescued in the past 24 hours. As officials in southern Italy warned they were overwhelmed by the arrivals, the EU announced a plan to help Rome deal with the refuges and combat people smuggling. Rescuers found the latest migrant victims stuffed into the hold of a fishing boat from north Africa when they boarded to help the most vulnerable of almost 600 migrants in the vessel.
