CNN —A baby girl was born at sea on a migrant dinghy en route to Spain from Africa on Monday, according to the Spanish maritime rescue service. In 2020, he cut the umbilical cord of a child born on a similar journey. This Atlantic migration route is the deadliest in the world according to Caminando Fronteras, an NGO which defends migrants’ rights. The migrant pressure on the Canary Islands is causing political tensions in Madrid. Spain has been considering setting up an emergency reception center for migrants arriving on its shores at an airport near Madrid, according to multiple reports last year.
