The Human Cost of Europe's Migration Maze At least 72 people have died in Ceuta, a Spanish enclave in North Africa, after a recent border surge from Morocco.
This tragedy highlights the desperation and danger faced by those seeking a new life in Europe, as well as the EU's inability to coordinate a unified response to migration.
The Spanish government has pointed out that many of those who died were attempting to swim to safety, with some drowning and others crushed by breakwaters and border fences.
