Sub-Saharan migrants line up next to a police station after climbing the fence that separates Morocco and the Spanish enclave of Melilla, Spain, Monday Feb. 17, 2014. A Spanish official says about 200 sub-Saharan migrants stormed a barbed-wire border fence along Spain's northwest African enclave of Melilla, with about 50 of them making it over. A spokesman for the Interior Ministry's office in Melilla said the melee began early Monday. The Spanish city of Melilla lies on the African continent, surrounded by Morocco and the Mediterranean Sea. Migrants hoping to get to Europe camp on the Moroccan side, with several thousand trying each year to enter the city and Spain's other coastal enclave of Ceuta. (AP Photo/ Jesus Blasco de Avellaneda)
