Previously migrants had been transferred from lampedusa to sicily , where those not given refugee status eventually received an essentially meaningless expulsion order .
For weeks , boats had been arriving to lampedusa from the african coasts . The immigrant shelters were full and the italian civil defense decided to dispatch the thousands of new arrivals across the country .
Rome has sought to relieve the overload of refugees and the humanitarian crisis they could face on lampedusa by giving most of those migrants three-month italian residence visas .
