Aug 28, 2024, 04:01 PM
A video has surfaced showing a Spanish Civil Guard boat allegedly running over and destroying a small dinghy carrying migrants off the coast of Melilla, an autonomous city of Spain on the North African coast. The incident reportedly occurred after the migrants, who were attempting to enter Melilla from Morocco, ignored orders to stop. The boat contained four migrants, and the action has been described as a dangerously aggressive move by the Spanish authorities. The Spanish NGO Caminando Fronteras reported that over 5,000 people have died in the first five months of 2024 while attempting similar crossings.
