Several immigrants come to Spain after jumping fence with Morocco – Prensa Latina

In a statement, the delegation of the Spanish government in the autonomous city reported that the jump occurred this Monday, and the same was attended by about 40 people, belonging to a larger group of almost a hundred.

however, two-thirds of them were controlled by the moroccan forces before approaching the fence of Melilla, a city that, together with Ceuta are the only land borders between the European Union and Africa.

In recent years, thousands of migrants, sub-saharans tried to access both cities by jumping the barbed wire fences that separate moroccan territory.

according To the International Organization for Migration, more than 13 thousand 200 migrants arrived to Spain in 2016, of which about five thousand did so by land.
