They entered the press conference hall singing the National anthem “Fratelli d’Italia” (Brothers of Italy): a maybe rhetorical touch which didn’t affect the strong human and moving impact typical of every arrival of the ‘humanitarian corridors”. 33 Syrian refugees from the Lebanese refugee camps, especially families, fathers, mothers and most of all children. And these smallest ones are those that, after 15 flights and 900 asylum seekers welcomed in Italy with special humanitarian visas, make the arrivals have all the same intensity of the first one.

To receive the new group of refugees there was also a delegation of the Federation of the Agroindustry Workers (FLAI) of the main Italian Trade Union (GCIL), led by its representative Jean-René Bilongo. This organization, according to an agreement with FCEI, will take over for one year, one of the families arrived with this last flight.
