Children in a strange land: the plight of the 1,000 minor migrants still in Spain's Ceuta
Approximately 1,000 unaccompanied minors remain in Ceuta, Spain, after a migration surge saw 72,000 cross into the enclave, with most returning to Morocco. A 17-year-old girl described witnessing her brother drown during the chaotic crossing and now begs on Ceuta's streets. Spanish authorities report 75 deaths, while Morocco lists 11 additional fatalities, and parents in Morocco search for missing children.
