214 migrants, rescued on board of the NGO ship Sea-Eye 4 in four different operations in December, disembarked at the port of Pozzallo, in Sicily, on Friday.
According to local medical staff, passengers were in 'quite good' health conditions.
"Despite the difficulties, however, they made it, and it was a lucky Christmas," said Pozzalo port physician Vincenzo Morello.
Disembarkment in Sicily follows over a week of searching a safe port.
Earlier in December, Maltese authorities denied entry for the passengers of the NGO ship.
