Nador, Mar. 26 - Some 621 would-be immigrants were rounded in the northern city of Nador from January 1st through March 25, part of efforts to curb illegal migration.

According to local authorities, 536 out of these illegals come from sub-Saharan Africa, while the 85 others are from Algeria.

The would-be immigrants use Morocco as a destination, but mostly as a transit to cross to the EU either through the Gibraltar Strait, the Moroccan cities of Sebta and Melilia -occupied by Spain- or through the Canary Islands, off Morocco's southern Atlantic coasts.
