San Ferdinando tent camp clearing ordered

(ANSA) - Reggio Calabria, February 28 - The mayor of the town of San Ferdinando in Calabria on Thursday ordered the sprawling migrant farm worker tent camp there to be cleared after fires killed three migrants there over the past year.
    First citizen Andrea Tripodi said he ordered the "immediate clearance" of the camp, which houses migrants working in the fields of the nearby Piana di Gioia Tauro.
    Over the last year there have been fires in the camp that have caused the deaths of three migrants.
    The ordinance, translated into French, English and Arabic, has been delivered to all residents of the camp.
    The interior ministry said all of the regular migrants among the around 1,000 immigrants would be found a place in rceeption centres (ex-SPRARs, CARAs, CAS).
    Two years ago some 2,700 migrants were registered in the camp.
