Influx continues

More coverage today by the UK's Telegraph on the Maltese immigrants crisis:

More than 200 stowaways arrived on the Maltese coast over the weekend, most of them on board a fishing boat whose engine broke down near the shore. "The landing of 235 immigrants in Malta is equivalent to the arrival of 23,500 people in Sicily," said Mr Borg. The island's only centre for the migrants is currently housing more than 1,400 people, police said. The Maltese government is putting up tents and will open a new centre soon, "but if the influx of migrants continues at this pace, this will not be sufficient," he said.
