Search Continues for Four Moroccan Fishermen Missing off Gibraltar Coast

According to the Spanish news agency EFE, the four Moroccans went out to sea in a small fishing boat that would have eventually capsized near the coast of Ceuta, due to the bad weather conditions that marked the end of last week.

According to the same source, the wind in the area was blowing at over 50 km/h. This could easily have influenced the navigation of the four fishermen.

Their disappearance was announced to the Spanish authorities by the Moroccan authorities. All ships transiting in the area have been informed of the disappearance and invited to alert the authorities if they spot any signs of a possible shipwreck.
