Units of the Royal Navy and elements in charge of coastal surveillance intercepted, on Tuesday in Morocco’s southern territorial waters between Tan Tan and Dakhla, makeshift boats with a total of 190 candidates for irregular migration on board, including 11 women, all Sub-Saharans, a military source said.
The rescued people were transported safe and sound to the nearest national ports, after having received the necessary care, before being handed over to the Royal Gendarmerie for the usual administrative procedures, the same source added.
