At least 72 people died during last week's mass influx of migrants into Spain's Ceuta enclave, when tens of thousands of people swam around the border post from Morocco, local officials said on Sunday.
Most of the estimated 60,000 people who rushed into Spain's north African enclave have returned to Morocco since the territory's largest mass migrant crossing.
"The latest figure that we have is 72," the government's delegate to Ceuta, Miguel Angel Perez Triano, told reporters, when asked about the number of fatalities.
The previous toll was 67 deaths.
Spanish police and troops patrolled the streets of Ceuta on Sunday as the enclave returned to normal after the sudden mass influx of migrants from Morocco.
