Scores of would-be migrants, most of them from sub-Saharan Africa, were intercepted in northern Morocco near the border with the Spanish exclave of Ceuta on Saturday, two weeks after tens of thousands of people attempted to enter the territory.
Reporters saw migrants being detained in areas close to the frontier, while Moroccan media outlet Le360 reported that 294 people had been arrested. It said 46 were Moroccan nationals, with the remainder coming from sub-Saharan Africa.
