From south to east, from the Canary Islands to the Balearic Islands. The Spanish coasts have received since Friday the arrival of boats with dozens of immigrants on board. The most striking case, by infrequent, is that of the Balearic Islands, where up to five boats have arrived with just a difference of hours during the early hours, to Mallorca, Ibiza and Cabrera.
In Murcia, meanwhile, the Civil Guard is still looking for 45 immigrants from the group of 454 who arrived in 31 boats last weekend in Murcia, who left a Cartagena sports center at midnight and have broken the quarantine to which they were forced by having been in contact with any of the 34 infected with COVID-19 who were traveling with them, according to the Government Delegation.
In the political sphere, Vox has asked the Government to mobilize the Navy in the face of the increasing arrival of boats with immigrants on the Spanish coast.
In a tweet they affirm that the Spaniards "are suffering an arrival of illegals to our coasts, many infected, unprecedented and the Civil Guard is overwhelmed."
"If the Government does not mobilize the Naval Navy, a misfortune can happen at any time," adds the formation led by Santiago Abascal.
