April 2016 A non-exhaustive summary.
Despite the repressive system getting more and more intense, with all
the raids in the forests, the mass arrests, the interceptions of boats
and regular push-backs, the deportation of migrants to the south and the
construction of new fences – the number of migrants who arrived at the
spanish coasts in april is highly impressive!
The route to the Canary Islands:
The arrivals by boat increased and especially the way to the Canary
Islands should be mentioned. In 2015 the was a notable increase of
interceptions on this way, almost 844 people, which is the triple of the
number in the report of APDH in 2014.
The death toll rose 48% in 2015 at the Morrocan/Spanish border…
After an andalusian organization concerning the loss of life at sea, the
deaths have also escalated: 195 people died trying to reach Spain, 113
of them missing. This is 48% higher than the year before.

No system, as repressive and powerful it might be can stop migration!
