THE FENCE OF MELILLA

It was build a fence on the limits of Melilla and Morrroco. It wa biuld in1998 do to the  people that were desesperate to pass to Spain. Until 2005 there was only one fence of 3 meters high and 12 km long, in that year the fence was ampified to 6 meter high, a double fence and blades were implanted on it. These blades were very harmful to the people that try to jump it. The blades caused seious wonunds in the people's arms and legs. Because of that they where removed in 2007( an interesting fact is that the blades were planed to be removed in 2006 but it take 1 year to remove them). the security of the fence is only the fence it selve, there al also thermal and night cameras, sensors of movement and sound apart from all the people that works there.

Recently the blades were put again on the fences. this was do to the increment of people thas is trying to pass throw  jumping it. This blades causes wound as the ones of the photo or even worse ones. The people that want to pass to Europe are camping in the campament of the mountain called Gurugú. These people have done a long journey to pass to Europe and have an oportinity, but what they have foun is only a fence and security that misterat them. That's why there are very few images of the fence and the televisions are not alowed to film it.
