These unsettling images show dozens of migrants wrapped in emergency blankets clinging to rocks off the Italian coast after spending last night in the open.
The group of around 50 are huddled together under a bleak grey sky in Ventimiglia, a town right on the border with France.
Italian police moved in yesterday to disperse around 200 migrants who were staging a sit-in at a border crossing after French police refused to let them enter the country.
The men in these pictures slipped away from the police cordon and took refuge on rocks near the border post.
