South Africa is pushing for continent-wide talks on irregular migration after anti-immigration protests at home and a deadly crossing from Morocco toward Spain’s Ceuta.
A mass rush into Spain’s Ceuta left 75 dead, about 1,000 unaccompanied minors in care and new pressure on Europe’s migration partnership with Morocco.
An emergency EU meeting followed a mass crossing into Ceuta, leaving Spain to manage about 1,000 minors as casualty and migration estimates remain unsettled.
A €100 million African Development Bank loan moves Morocco’s planned battery plant into a financed development phase, but construction and jobs remain ahead.
