The Italian government is pushing to reactivate migrant centers in Albania, despite legal challenges.
After multiple court rulings against the detention of migrants in these centers, the government is considering a decree to bypass Italian judicial oversight.
The plan includes expanding the centers' use to accommodate migrants already in Italy, not just those rescued at sea.
Opposition parties have criticized the move, calling it a waste of resources and an attack on judicial independence.
Meanwhile, concerns grow over increasing migrant arrivals and reports of human rights abuses in Libya, where thousands of migrants face dire conditions.
A government meeting is set to discuss these issues and finalize the controversial decree.
