They would continue a way of life central to Piana degli Albanesi, a community founded 500 years ago by Albanian refugees fleeing the Ottoman conquest. Perched on a fertile plateau in the mountains south of Palermo, the town has long provided much of the wheat and dairy central to Sicily’s agricultural traditions.

'It's a nightmare': What life is like under Mount Etna's cloud of ash
When in March 2021 Emilia Privitera started coughing relentlessly, she initially worried she might have caught COVID-19 again. Then when the test came in negative, she thought it could be just a seasonal allergy. “But the cough persisted for weeks, and my lungs would make a strange hiss sound when taking a breath between one cough and the other,” she tells Euronews Earth.

Photography for Hyphen by Rebecca Marshall As dusk settled over Nice one evening in February, the narrow streets north of the city centre filled with the smell of fried pastry soon to be soaked in honey. In the days before Ramadan began, Muslim-owned businesses across the French Riviera city adjusted their rhythms: semolina stacked high, dates replenished and shelves lined with syrups and almonds.
Takoua Ben Mohamed: graphic novelist turns to kids’ books
Takoua Ben Mohamed, Italy’s best known hijabi graphic novelist, believes she has found a way to fight Islamophobia. The activist and award-winning author of eight celebrated comic books — inspired by her experiences growing up as a Tunisian immigrant in Italy — wants to write children’s books. Anti-Muslim violence is on the rise across Europe. In Italy, 1,106 hate crimes against Muslims were registered in 2023 — a number expected to rise in upcoming surveys as a result of the conflict in Gaza.
Letter From Sicily: A Migrant-Rescue Ship Charts a Course for Gaza
SICILY—On the afternoon of Aug. 29, a little more than one day into its 36th mission in the Mediterranean, the search-and-rescue (SAR) vessel Life Support made an unexpected midsea U-turn back to Sicily. The boat, owned by the humanitarian nongovernmental organization Emergency, had already begun rerouting when head of mission Jonathan Nanì La Torre summoned crew members for a meeting.

«Due anni fa la mia casa è stata distrutta. Io e la mia famiglia siamo scappati dalla città e, nell’arco di una notte, siamo diventati sfollati». Potrebbero essere le parole di uno delle centinaia di migliaia di migranti che, dal 2013, anno d’inizio della crisi dei rifugiati, continuano ad arrivare in Sicilia via mare, scappando da guerre, povertà e disastri naturali.
Tära: singing to keep Palestinian culture alive
On a breezy April evening, Palestinian-Italian singer Tära has captured the attention of a large crowd gathered in Modesto di Veglia park in Rome, singing Ya Helwe Ciao, a hymn to freedom, hope and unity. The song is an Arabic take on Bella Ciao, Italy’s famous chant of liberation at the end of the second world war, and in recent years has been sung in protest against repressive regimes across the Middle East. In Italy 25 April is Liberation Day, celebrating the overthrow of fascism.

On a freezing Sunday morning in January, the Monfalcone Tigers cricket team is doing its best to warm up for a training session in Isonzo Park, Turriaco. The small town on Italy’s east coast is exposed to a whipping wind from the Adriatic Sea, bringing a bitter chill that many of the players, originally from Bangladesh, are still unused to. This is the first time the team has been able to practise in weeks andcaptain Sani Bhuiyan, 34, is happy to see his teammates, despite the bleak weather.

Palestine Circus School finds new stage in Sicilian city Catania
On the stage of the Modern Art Gallery of Catania, Sicily’s second-largest city, six Palestinian circus performers lift and drag a heavy Chinese pole. The group carries it in perfect synergy in a breathtaking display of athleticism and trust among each other. If one lets go, they will all get hurt. “But we all trust each other. We know we can always count on one another,” Mohamed Abu Taleb, the play's director, tells The New Arab at the end of the 55-minute performance.

‘I trekked pregnant through the jungle to get paracetamol’
In the end it wasn’t her rape or her husband’s murder that drove Mvita Ngolo to trek through the jungle to find help – but a lack of the most basic painkiller for a cold. She was five-months pregnant with the child of her attacker when she heard about a medical mission in Goli, deep in the primaeval forests of Uganda’s north-west and an arduous 25-kilometre journey from her own village in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
A festival of peace and couscous
On a large spotlit stage, 10 chefs wearing white uniforms and their national flags stand around a plate of uncooked couscous, eyeballing each other.

In Italy, a Palestinian lawyer who left Gaza builds Israel genocide case
Messina, Italy – Piles of court documents in English and Arabic filled the desk and covered the floor of Triestino Mariniello’s home office for much of March in Messina, a city in southern Italy overlooking Mediterranean waters on one side and the smoking Etna volcano on the other. Here, far from the war, a team of lawyers from the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCGR) in Gaza, to which Mariniello belongs, worked last month on their attempt to prosecute Israel for genocide.

What can a camel teach Italians about their Islamic roots?
A couple of camels – Jamila, a white female, and Ali, a brown male – munch lazily on their hay while their owner, a tall 35-year-old man, fills the water tank next to them. The idyllic rural scene could be a postcard from north Africa, except for the snow-topped volcano, Mount Etna, looming clear into view behind the animals’ stall. “These animals have an impressive memory, just like elephants,” said Santo Fragalà, their carer, gently patting Ali on this brisk Sicilian January morning.
The Iraqi storyteller reviving Sicily’s Arabic culture
Accompanied by the rhythm of a drum, the voice of Yousif Latif Jaralla — a slender 64-year-old Iraqi storyteller with an intense gaze — resonates across the main hall of Mare Memoria Viva, a modern museum in the heart of Palermo, Sicily. On this crisp November evening, an audience of around 100 people has come to see his 50-minute show, Amadou in the Belly of the Whale, the story of an African migrant risking his life to reach Europe via sea.
In Italy, a school teaches reconciliation over revenge
As conflicts rage around the world, there is a place of calm in Italy, a medieval citadel where students come to learn how to overcome the differences that have divided them. And, hopefully, make peace with each other. They come together to undertake a two-year study and cohabitation program with a person whom history and politics have labeled as their “enemy,” and learn how to deconstruct and defang their hatred and conflict. Then they return to their countries of origin as agents of peace.
