CEUTA, Spain — Dikra, a 20-year-old migrant from Morocco, had spent five days in Ceuta by Sunday after swimming to the Spanish territory with her younger sister and cousin.
Since then, all her meals have come from local residents, and she isn’t sure when her next one will come.
I want to go to Spain,” Dikra said, who asked that her last name be withheld for safety reasons.
By Sunday afternoon, Dikra was among the last remaining migrants in the city after tens of thousands of the 60,000 migrants that had breached the border with Morocco on Thursday and Friday walked back to that country.
