Humans in transit - Sicily { 47 images } Created 1 Aug 2014

More than a 100.000 migrants are expected on the Italian coast before the end of the year. Crisis and wars in Africa and Middle East force thousands to leave their lands and face a dangerous journey thru deserts and borders and transit on a boat to reach Europe. Operation 'mare nostrum' with te participation of Italian Navy tries to search and rescue the migrant's boats and to bring them safety in the Sicilian harbors. This is just another step for the traveling migrants.
