ROME (Reuters) – Tempers are flaring between increasingly frustrated residents and boat migrants mostly from Africa using a well-known transit camp in central Rome as temperatures soar this summer.
Italy is taking in thousands of boat migrants every week for a third year in a row, and friction is common between them and those who live along the path many take on their journey toward northern Europe.
Set up by volunteers, the Baobab center, by Rome’s Tiburtina train station, was shut down by police in December in the wake of the Paris attacks and because the European Union wants Italy to stop migrants from moving on, not help them to do so.
But Baobab volunteers quickly set up a camp on the street in front of the old shelter with tents and chemical toilets, serving three meals a day, and migrants have flocked there in their thousands.
“We can’t open our windows because of the stench,” said Valeria, who lives with her six-year-old son and husband next to the camp in Via Cupa – Gloomy Street in English. MORE

Better Gloomy Street than Boomy Street, I reckon.
Cool ’em off with a nice mid-ocean drop.
The local morgue is air conditioned.
I understand EU law says refugees must remain in the country where they first land and are not free to roam the entire group of countries shopping for the best hand outs. Of course, what does the agreed upon law have to do with the way the EU is managed?
Give ’em a transit camp along one of the canals in Venice. That’s the same as a street, isn’t it?
People in Italy ride plenty of bicycles.
Show ’em whut you think of a so-called “refugee” by parking a bike in their ass!
that picture of the muzzies bending over reminds me of the game-pin the tail on the donkey.
