Seventy-six of the 676 migrants who today, on the orders of the Prefecture of Agrigento, left the hotspot in the Imbricola district of Lampedusa were transferred on board a plane headed to Cagliari, to be relocated to a reception facility in Sardinia . The other six hundred left, between the morning and the evening, on scheduled ferries to Porto Empedocle. Just under 300 guests remained on the island.

Meanwhile, another immigration drama is taking place: a twenty-five-year-old Pakistani man died from asphyxiation caused by engine gas fumes while traveling on a boat with 132 other migrants. This was confirmed by the first cadaveric inspection carried out in the morgue of the Lampedusa cemetery where the coffin was taken. The policemen of the flying squad took care of the hearing of the traveling companions.

An autopsy on the 32-year-old Egyptian who arrived on Wednesday is scheduled for tomorrow at the morgue of the San Giovanni di Dio hospital where the body has been transferred in the meantime. The man almost certainly died because he was shot when he boarded in Zuara.
