Moroccan authorities on Saturday continued to remove people by coach, taking them back to their homes
As thousands of Moroccans who forced their way into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta this week were returning home, many did so with their dreams broken and newly convinced that reaching Spain was not worth the risks.
Mohamed Nias, a 23-year-old fruit seller from Tangier, was returning from his second attempt in five years at getting to Spain.
He told AFP he’d gone “in search of a better life” but found “nothing but suffering and racism” and complained that he had been unable to find any food for two days in the Spanish city after swimming to reach it.
“Never come here, you’ll only suffer,” he warned those who might follow in his footsteps.
