  "account": "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.",
  "summary": "El 13 de diciembre de 2023, las ONG marroquíes presentaron un informe que eleva a 141 la cantidad de muertos a ambos lados de la frontera de Ceuta, en el contexto de la avalancha migratoria de jóvenes que se ha producido en los últimos años. La Asociación Marroquí de Derechos Humanos (AMDH) informa que habían contabilizado inicialmente 130 muertes, pero esta cifra ha sido aumentada por sus investigaciones propias y consultas a fuentes oficiales. Aunque el informe es preliminar, ya cuenta con 31 cadáveres en la morgue de Tetuán y otros 17 en la de Tánger, víctimas del cruce masivo de la frontera con la ciudad autónoma española.",
