126 Moroccan illegal immigrants arrested in Spain

The Spanish coast guards arrested during the past few days 126 Moroccan clandestine immigrants while they were attempting to stealthily reach the southern Spanish coasts.

The Spanish authorities also seized three makeshift boats which were used by the immigrants in their hazardous trip.

Some twenty-seven illegal immigrants perished last month at the Gibraltar strait following the wreckage of their over-loaded Patera "Small boat."
