The long wait to enter a migrant center in Ceuta: “Every day more come”
Hundreds of people are protesting in the surroundings of a reception facility in the Loma Colmenar neighborhood. The neighbors denounce that the process “is going very slowly” and they are suffering the presence of more than 4,000 migrants in their streets.
Aldellah Zahar, a 21-year-old from Marrakech, is among hundreds of Moroccans who have gathered on the streets of Ceuta's Loma Colmenar neighborhood, hoping to access the city's largest emergency migrant reception center. Zahar, who has a bandaged leg, is undeterred by his circumstances and is smiling as he poses for a photo. He and his friends, including 18-year-old Otman from Agadir, say they would rather die than be expelled back to Morocco, with Zahar stating he would "kill myself before returning". The Moroccan migrants are seeking a better life in Spain.
