About 1,000 North African migrants on a dozen boats have reached the Italian island of Lampedusa overnight.
Others have been sighted approaching the island, off the coast of Tunisia. Most of the migrants are said to come from Tunisia amid turmoil there and in neighbouring Libya.
Several thousands have arrived on the Sicilian island since mid-February.
Italy has sought EU help as it copes with the influx amid fears of a larger exodus from North African countries.

How do you think Italy is going to deal with this influx of refugees?
