Between 1 January and 30 November 2017, 15,540 unaccompanied and separated children arrived in Italy by sea, representing 13% of all sea arrivals in this period. Similarly, 14 per cent of those arriving in the same period last year were UASC. The numbers of UASC arriving by sea, however, have decreased compared to last year, when over 24,600 UASC were registered at landing points in the January-November period.
