Migrant crossings from North Africa into Spain have surged this year, with many people risking their lives on dangerous boat journeys across the Mediterranean. Some 16,827 migrants have arrived in the Canaries between January and October, an increase of 44 percent from the same period a year ago, according to Spain's interior ministry.
