Around two-thirds of the over 3,500 children who have gone missing across Italy so far this year are said to be migrants and are much harder to locate than their Italian counterparts.
Around 30 children are said to go missing every day on average in Italy, with 3,589 children being reported missing so far this year â but just one-third of them are Italian citizens, according to a government report.
The remaining two-thirds are migrants registered as children, with many being people who have come into Italy illegally and absconded from migrant reception centers, the European Union-funded website InfoMigrants reports.
Many missing children have been found since disappearing this year but the rate at which they are found greatly differs based on whether the children are Italian or migrants. Of the missing children found this year, over 70 per cent were Italians.
