Moroccan NGOs put the death toll at 141 on both sides of the Ceuta border

Moroccan NGOs have raised the death toll to 141 on both sides of the Ceuta border during the migratory rush of tens of thousands of young people. The Moroccan Association of Human Rights (AMDH), a left-wing NGO with observers on the ground and its own investigations, presented a first report on the Ceuta migration crisis on Friday with these data collected from official media sources and, above all, from its own sources.

In a preliminary estimate at the beginning of this week, it had already put the number of dead on both sides of the border at 130. On the Moroccan side, AMDH has counted 31 bodies in the morgue in Tetouan and 17 more in that of Tangier of victims of the massive crossing of the border with the Spanish autonomous city.
