Attilio Dellera (Volontarius NGO), working at Brenner station. “Here at the Brenner border the flow of people pass quite unnoticed, but we are talking about 150-200 people a day. I started coming here as a volunteer, but then due to staff shortages Volontarius hired me, and here I am. We do what we can, but here you can often see shady figures… smugglers who ask for money to migrants to buy them the ticket (to Austria), or load them into a car and then unload them before the border.”
