Dozens of Moroccans gathered on Sunday in the town of Fnideq, desperately seeking news of their loved ones who were among the thousands who swam across the nearby border to the Spanish territory of Ceuta this week.
Aldellatif, an agricultural worker in Moulay Bousselham, about 135 kilometres (84 miles) from Fnideq, feared for the fate of his 17-year-old brother, who ventured out with two friends in a bid to reach Ceuta by swimming.
