A rescue ship with 234 refugees and migrants on board is heading to France, hoping to secure a safe port after Italy's new far-right government refused to provide entry.
Italy has allowed several refugees and migrants from three other rescue charity boats to disembark, including hundreds who were barred earlier because the government deemed them 'not vulnerable'.

Al Jazeera's @Tony Birtley reports from the Sicilian port of Catania, Italy.
