Original Note:
The video subjects weren't invaders, but migrants. As per L.A. Times' May 9, 2021 publication, they were safely guided to Lampedusa by Italian authorities upon Mediterranean detection. Notably, Lampedusa is nearer to Northern Africa than Italy's mainland. https://www.latimes.com/world-nation/story/2021-05-09/more-than-1-200-migrants-reach-italian-island-on-boats https://www.dw.com/en/italy-over-1000-migrants-brought-ashore-on-lampedusa/a-57476669
