According to Russian media reports, in the early morning of Friday local time, about 2,000 immigrants, mainly from Sudan, tried to cross the border of Morocco and enter an enclave of Spain, an EU country in Africa.

These immigrants climbed up the high fence and had fierce confrontations and conflicts with border guards. It was reported that a large number of people were injured while climbing over the fence.

Their hands were stained with blood, and their clothes were torn by the hooks on the fence. Many people fell from the top of the high fence and caused a stampede. About 27 people died in the stampede. It is said that only 133 people managed to luckily reach Spain (the enclave).

About this enclave

This enclave is called Melilla . It is one of the only two enclaves of the European Union in Africa. The other is Ceuta not far from Melilla.

Melilla is located in northern Morocco, facing the Mediterranean Sea , with an area of only 12.3 square kilometers. It is 2240 kilometers away from Strait of Gibraltar . Melilla has been occupied by Spain since 1497.

Regarding the issue of Melilla’s sovereignty, the Moroccan government has been negotiating with Spain and hopes that Spain will return its ownership.

Morocco's basis is its insistence that Spanish rule in the region is a continuation of colonialism, which is not only illegal but should be ended.

However, the Spanish government believes that Morocco only gained brief independence from France in 1956 and has no sovereignty over Melilla.

Conclusion

Melilla is currently the only land border between Africa and the European Union, attracting a large number of African immigrants who yearn to pursue their dreams in Europe. But even though their destination is within easy reach, many people fail to realize their ideals and even lose their lives trying to do so.

The root cause of this phenomenon is Africa's economic poverty and social instability. Just imagine if you were in Africa, a country with a prosperous economy and a stable society, who would take the risk of immigrating?
