The Interior Ministry of Spain has pushed the deportation of dozens of Senegalese of March 10, departing from its February 24 date.
Spain was supposed to send back scores of Senegalese living in Spain illegally on February. But according to Senego, there has been a change of date with the deportation now set to go on, on March 10.
The February 24 date was abandoned after Senegal refused to accept the flight over Spain’s management of the coronavirus in the Canary Islands, Senego reported on Monday.
This will be the first return flight of migrants from the Canary Islands to Dakar organized since 2018, when at least 150 Senegalese were transferred to their country in four planes departing from Gran Canaria (one, with 40 people) and Tenerife (three with a total of 110), according to Senego.
