Spain arrests five over migrant smuggling
The Spanish police have arrested five individuals on charges of smuggling undocumented migrants from Ceuta. The smugglers received over $10,000 for each trip to transfer migrants by boat from Ceuta to southern Spain across the Strait of Gibraltar. The network includes four suspects who sheltered the migrants in houses and temporary sites, while a fifth suspect was detained for planning to transport seven migrants via an unseaworthy boat for 8,000 euros each. This comes amid a period in July when Ceuta experienced the chaotic influx of tens of thousands of migrants, resulting in dozens of deaths. The Spanish government is working on establishing temporary shelter centers to ease the pressure on the city’s reception system.
