202 more irregular immigrants arrived on Tenerife yesterday alone

Sunbathing holidaymakers have once again helped immigrants following another wave of arrivals on the beaches of Tenerife.

A total of 202 people arrived on three cayuco boats to the south of the island yesterday, among them a group of 49 men who came ashore on the La Tejita beach, where sunbathers rushed to their aid.

It’s second time in four days that such scenes have been witnessed.

The contrasting scenes of those who have with those less fortunate have been highlighted by the Spanish media.
