The testimony of Aschraf, the young man who arrived in Ceuta on a bottle float

Aschraf pleaded in the waters of Ceuta on Wednesday May 19: “Try to understand us!” He asked the Spanish military for understanding while he stroked and cried, tied to some plastic bottles that served as a float. He did not dare to step on land because he believed that the soldier, who was speaking to him in his language from the shore, was going to hit him. Finally, this 16-year-old young man came out of the water, tried to escape by climbing a wall, but was caught. And, after being consoled by the soldiers themselves, he was returned to Morocco that same day. Just two days earlier, 8,000 irregular migrants had just entered Ceuta without encountering any opposition from the Moroccan authorities. Of these, between 2,000 and 3,000 are minors. In the video that accompanies this news, he tells his testimony to EL PAÍS.
