Aug. 15 (UPI) -- A ship carrying nearly 150 migrants docked in Malta after a five-day dispute between European Union nations over where migrants could disembark.
The vessel, Aquarius, arrived Wednesday at the Maltese harbor of Valletta. The ship had been at the center of a five-day dispute between EU countries on where migrants should disembark, before the EU's smallest country allowed it to dock. As it was adrift between Italy and Malta, Italy denied port entry. Malta also initially refused, but later agreed to allow entry.
