By EUobserver
Austrian soldiers have carried out border checks at the Brenner Pass between Austria and Italy over the weekend, Euronews reported. The decision to deploy 70 soldiers at the border between the two EU member states was announced last week, to prevent migrants crossing on freight trains. Meanwhile, in Rome, police evicted some 800 migrants that had been squatting in a building near a train station in the Italian capital.
