Aware Migrants

Some 600 migrants attempting to cross from Morocco to Spain have been rescued in just 24 hours, amid a surge in arrivals on what has become the fastest growing sea route to Europe.

The Spanish Coastguard said that most migrants crossing from Morocco used flimsy, inflatable rafts without engines - “toy boats” which were not fit for the sea, making the challenges for the coastguard “very complicated”.
