Alto Adige is to take in 300
to 400 migrants bound for Bavaria after the Italian government
agreed Wednesday to assist the German region with a massive wave
arriving from the Balkans.
Alto Adige has offered to host the migrants for a few days
"as a temporary measure to allow Bavaria to regroup and face the
imminent emergency", according to a note from the Province of
Bolzano.
The provincial government said the refugees would be housed
in gyms, where adequate hygienic facilities and infrastructure
already function, while Italy's Civil Protection and local
non-profit groups will be called in to manage the improvised
shelters.
