| Abstract: | During World War II, a group of 2,000 Maltese people were sent to concentration camps in different parts of Italy when Italy thought they were British spies in Libya, at the time an Italian colony. This was discovered during research for a documentary ("Maltin Internati fl-Italja - Storja Vera" / "Maltese Internees in Italy- A True Story") which uncovers the story of these Maltese nationals, who survived the war years in concentration camps in Italy. TVM (Malta Television) journalist Mario Xuereb, himself a history graduate, found documents in several archives all over Italy which documented this obscure part of Maltese history. |
