A total of 27 immigrants, most of them from Algeria entered Ceuta this weekend by swimming from Morocco.
police and health sources told Spanish agency EFE that most of the immigrants managed to enter through the southern border of Tarajal and in almost all cases the entries occurred on Saturday, although some did so on Monday.
Of the total number of immigrants who swam in, 17 came from Algeria, eight from Morocco – among them a minor – and the remaining two said they were from Syria.
The Civil Guard has assured EFE that there has been great migratory pressure by sea in recent weeks, especially due to the good weather, which favors this type of clandestine entry.
Algerian or Syrian immigrants are transferred to the Temporary Immigrant Stay Center (CETI) while those from Morocco are handed over to the border authorities, with the exception of minors, who are taken to the reception centers.
