Aug 28, 2024, 07:42 PM
A Spanish Guardia Civil boat was involved in a dramatic incident off the coast of Melilla, an autonomous city of Spain on the North African coast. The boat was caught on video chasing and ultimately splitting a migrant dinghy in half. The dinghy, reportedly coming from Morocco, was carrying four migrants who ignored orders to stop. Human rights campaigners in Morocco and Spain have called for an investigation into the incident. Despite the severity of the situation, reports indicate that no one was hurt, and Spanish authorities have not launched an investigation.
