Thousands of migrants overwhelm police at Spanish territory’s border
Migrants have swarmed into Spain’s North African enclave of Ceuta, overwhelming police at the city’s breakwater, after swimming over from the Moroccan side, Spain’s Guardia Civil police says.
A Guardia Civil spokesperson said the migrants were “massively entering from the sea” through the Tarajal breakwater but could not provide any estimates for the numbers.
State television TVE on Thursday reported that 2000 to 3000 youths had crossed while state news agency EFE said some had scaled the border fences without swimming. #spain #morocco #africa #migrant #refugee
