46 Sub Saharan migrants reached the beach in Ceuta on Wednesday morning by swimming across

A group of 46 Sub Saharan migrants reached the beach in Ceuta on Wednesday morning by swimming across from Morocco, using rubber rings and inner tubes from tyres to help themselves keep afloat.

They were part of a larger group which was spotted jumping into the sea near the Moroccan border at Tarajal, some of whom were stopped from going any further by the Moroccan gendarmerie.

Four of the group which managed to reach the Spanish North African enclave were treated by Cruz Roja personnel for minor injuries and hypothermia.
