Its so sad to see what people go through in the pursuit of better opportunities especially as regards immigration issues where people think the grass is greener on the other side and will do all sorts to make that move.
In these pictures from Reuters, you can see migrants who in the process of scrambling over Melilla, a town along the border between Morocco and Spain, and one of the key crossing routes for African migrants trying to get into the 'promised land' of Europe every month.
They regularly rush the high wire fences in order to climb over. 2 days ago, Spain says 20 men managed to make it into the country after around 200 people began scaling the fences. 9 were injured, while another 70 spent hours trapped on top of the wire barriers, shouting slogans and asking for help to get into the country.
An official from Spain's Interior Ministry said 2,000 migrants have made it across the border fences in roughly 60 attempts this year alone and that the flow of migrants scrambling to reach Spain's north African territory Melilla is at double the rate of last year.
