About four hundred refugees were brought to Sicily by unknown smugglers. This was reported by Ansa with reference to the police.
An unknown boat landed illegal immigrants on the beach in Palma di Monteguaro, turned around and returned to the sea. The Coast Guard went in search, but came back with nothing.
Migrants were tried to apprehend the police and military. By the rules, everyone, even illegals, who arrived in the country must undergo a two-week quarantine.
This is the largest group of refugees in Sicily in the last few years.
