Reports concerning a recent migration incident have presented conflicting casualty figures. While some Spanish media outlets reported an initial death toll of 67 individuals, Moroccan media sources suggest the actual number of victims may be as high as 90. Among those reported deceased is 20-year-old footballer Faten Ben Omar El Azizi.
According to the girl’s father, speaking to the Moroccan daily “Alyaoum24,” Faten began her journey at the beach of Fnideke after learning of an opportunity to enter Ceuta. Like other migrants involved in the crossing, she reportedly attempted to reach Spain by swimming. It is understood that she died during the arduous journey toward Ceuta, though the precise circumstances surrounding her passing remain unknown.
The deceased’s father further stated that the girl had previously been issued a visa by Spain, which would have allowed her to enter Ceuta without the extreme risk she undertook. However, he added that she was reportedly unaware of this alternative pathway while engaged in the swimming attempt. The reports highlight the perilous nature of the migration route and the differing accounts regarding the scale of the tragedy and the details of the victims’ final passage.
