Deadly “Refugee rescue”: Italy has become a “route of terror”

The smuggling of “refugee rescuers” in the Mediterranean Sea is the direct reason for the latest terrorist attack by Islamists in Nice.

An alleged killer, who killed three people on Thursday in the largest church in Nice and stabbed six others, arrived in Italy as a migrant across the Mediterranean just last month.

According to several Italian newspapers, the 21-year-old Tunisian Brahim Aussaui entered the EU with a group of other migrants on 20 September at Lampedusa.

According to Corriere della Sera, the immigrant arrived in Bari after a two-week quarantine by ship. The Prefect there ordered him to leave Italy within seven days. However, the Tunisian did not arrive at the deportation centre.

Conservative and right-wing Italian opposition parties are making serious accusations against the government. “The Conte government must explain how the fundamentalist was able to arrive safely at Lampedusa and go to France,” criticizes Fratelli d’Italia’s head, Giorgiia Meloni. Italy has become a ‘route of terror’.
