Nearly 100 illegal migrans landed on the shores of the Balearics in Spain in just 24 hours. This comes after the news that over 3,200 migrants arrived in around 170 small boats since the start of the year.

The Guardia Civil, the Formentera Fire Brigade and the Red Cross intercepted 32 subn-Saharans at 9.10am on July 17, off the coast of Cabrera, according to the Government Delegation in the Balearic Islands.

At 1.40pm, six north Africans were assisted to shore. At 5.10pm, a further 30 sub-Saharans were rescued by the Maritime Rescue Service. And just after midnight on July 18, 27 Africans were intercepted.

According to the Spanish Ministry of the Interior and the Government Delegation in the Balearic Islands, more than 3,200 migrants have arrived in the Balearics so far this year on 170 small boats.

This comes after at least 12 people travelling in a small boat from Algeria to Spain went missing on June 29, according to the NGO Alarm Phone. There has been no news from them since, leaving family worried they died on the journey.

According to the UN Migration Agency IOM’s Missing Migrants page, more than 35,000 people have died or gone missing on various Mediterranean routes towards Europe since 2014.

Is it Spain any longer, or has it returned to Al-Andalus?

May require a modern version of Franco to save Spain.

100 in one day? Is that some sort of a freaking joke? Biden let in TEN THOUSAND per day. For years.
