Three people were arrested on human smuggling charges after the migrants were discovered at the Spanish checkpoint.
The Spanish Civil Guard made three arrests on Saturday and charged with human smuggling after the police force discovered four migrants hiding into four different vehicles.
Three of the migrants were found between 9 a.m. and 12 p.m. Saturday, the fourth migrant, stowed away underneath the dump truck, was located earlier in the day. All the migrants are believed to be from Africa, though individual countries were not named. Each of them were attempting to cross from Morocco into Melilla, a North African city which shares a border with Morocco and is part of Spain.
Attempts to enter Spain have also increased since 2018 when Italy cracked down on immigration policies and closed ports to humanitarian ships and cut off aid for those who have made it to the country. In 2017, 199,369 immigrants reached Italy compared to 23,370 in 2018. So far in 2019, 1,361 migrants have immigrated to the country.
