More than 1,000 Migrants Land in Spanish Islands in 48 hrs, Said Red Cross
2020-10-12
[AnNahar] More than a thousand illegal African migrants colonists have landed in the Spanish Canary Islands in the last 48 hours, an influx not seen in at least 10 years, according to the Red Thingy.

African migrants colonists have recently turned to the Canary Islands after agreements with The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund...
, Morocco and Libya tightened control over the Mediterranean route to Europe's shores.

Since Thursday, 1,015 people have arrived on 37 vessels to the islands of Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, Grand Canaria and Tenerife, the last two territories laying around 300 km (190 miles) off Africa's coast.

Most of the migrants colonists, from North Africa or sub-Saharan African nations, were in good health, though some were suffering symptoms of hypothermia, a Red Thingy front man said.

All have been tested for the new coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
, the official said.

The Red Thingy said the rate of arrivals was more or less the same as in 2006, when 30,000 migrants colonists landed in the Canary Islands.

Between January and September 30, more than 6,000 migrants colonists landed in the Canaries, six times the number who arrived in the same period in 2019, according the Spanish interior ministry.
