A new boat with 65 immigrants has arrived at the La Cebolla dock, in Arrecife, in the early hours of this Tuesday, as reported by CECOES.

The boat arrived in the capital at around 02:00 hours with 46 men, 13 women and 6 minors on board, all of them of sub-Saharan origin. It should be noted that, although most of them were in good health, five of them had to be transferred to health centers due to different pathologies.

Nine Red Cross volunteers went to the scene to provide humanitarian aid, such as hygiene kits, clothing, footwear, blankets and food, among others. Agents from the National Police, Port Police, Maritime Rescue, Frontex and the Canary Emergency Service also attended the dock.
