Spanish authorities say most migrants who entered Spain during a deadly rush into Spanish territory have returned to Morocco. Spain’s government reports that 57 bodies have been recovered on the Spanish side of the border, and officials warn the death toll may be higher because additional casualties may have been left on the Moroccan side. The accounts describe a chaotic attempt to cross near the border fence, including efforts to climb a breakwater supporting the fence. Spanish officials say some people drowned during the crossing, while others were crushed amid the crowd. The Australian outlet reports that tens of thousands of migrants voluntarily go back to Morocco after the incident. Both reports characterize the event as a surge in people attempting to reach Spain, followed by a large-scale return movement after authorities assess the situation. The exact number of entrants, the identities of the deceased, and the total number of missing people are not provided in the available summaries.
