Hundreds of Moroccan Minors Face Drug Addiction and Homelessness in Paris Suburbs

The social crisis caused by the arrival of Moroccan minors to Paris is worrying. Expelled by the French authorities years ago, these children, who roam the streets of the capital all day long, are back, reports le360. They have stormed the arteries of the city. They have set up more than 700 tents in the Parisian suburbs. These minors, who only speak Arabic and Spanish, are addicted to drugs and live in precarious conditions. For their part, the authorities are trying to get their hands on the leaders of this massive return.

The campaign to fight against the camps is at the origin of this operation which has already allowed the closure of the "Jungle" of Calais, in the north of France. Concerned by the situation, Moroccan activists are joining the fight. They are helping the French authorities identify suspected immigrants as the instigators of the return of Moroccan minors. According to them, their return has only one objective: theft and assault.

According to the daily Assabah, the French authorities have acknowledged their inability to contain the rush of minors to Paris. Similarly, they are unable to find solutions to save them from the dangers of the street.

These Moroccan minors, aged between 9 and 17, were able to reach France by hiding in merchant ships, which connect Ceuta and Melilla to Spain. After this stage, they board trucks that take them to the Paris region, details the same source.
