AFP images showed people swimming around Ceuta's frontier fence and others clambering over barbed wire to reach European soil, as Moroccan riot police fired tear gas and water cannons at crowds after an apparent breakdown of border controls.Ceuta, a Spanish territory of 18.5 square kilometres (seven square miles) in north Africa, and similar enclave Melilla, have Europe's only two land borders with its southern neighbouring continent.Zahra was eventually turned away at the Moroccan border town of Fnideq, but Ceuta's regional president said some 60,000 people have successfully entered the tiny territory of just 80,000 residents."I was in Tangier, where I was working. I woke up in the morning and heard that Ceuta had opened," Zahra told AFP."At that point, I told the people with me let's go there for work... let's try our luck too," she added, saying she wanted to leave for Europe because she works "under appalling conditions".The square near Fnideq from which many had set out the day before was a scene of ruin on Friday after the clashes, with more than a dozen cars burned out and rocks littering the ground as officers tried to push hopeful migrants back.Ceuta's regional president said at least 34 people have lost their lives in the treacherous dash into the territory.
