The eviction of refugees from Italy’s second largest centre for asylum seekers has continued amid protests from locals and opposition leaders.

The evictions began on Tuesday when 30 people were taken away, and another 75 were seen leaving.

The recently passed "Salvini law" cracks down on asylum rights by abolishing humanitarian protection permits issued to people who do not qualify for refugee status but deemed as vulnerable and barring them from receiving aid.

The law is set to leave thousands of people undocumented and without rights in the next two years.
