Over 1,000 migrants landed on Italy’s coasts over the weekend, including on the Sicilian island of Lampedusa, in Calabria and in the southern part of Puglia. But the numbers are still smaller than those recorded in 2023.
Migrant landings have resumed after a period of calm, with the arrival on Italy’s coasts of over 1,000 people in two days at the weekend (September 21-22). However, figures remain lower than in the same period last year, when landings were three times higher.
Meanwhile, the government, entrepreneurs and unions are dealing with new legislation on regular workers, with changes to the flow decree (a law allowing seasonal work visas to be granted to non-EU applicants) and the possible abolition of the click day (the first day to apply for the seasonal work visa).
