Around 500 African migrants cross border fence into Ceuta

Hundreds of African migrants have entered Spain's North African enclave of Ceuta by crossing a border fence separating the enclave from Morocco. The migrants climbed over the 6-metre barbed wire fence. Dozens of them got wounded in the process. The Red Cross is treating the migrants at its centre there and had dispatched five ambulances to help. Spain's two enclaves in Morocco, Ceuta and Melilla, are often used as entry points into Europe for African migrants. They either climb over their border fences or try to swim along the coast. In January, around 1,100 migrants tried to cross into Ceuta although most were eventually turned back.
