luzstories:

HARRAGA / Emanuele Cremaschi.
They are called Harraga  - from Arabic, ‘those who burn (their immigration papers)’ - and they are migrants, mainly from sub-Saharan countries, who attempted to illegally immigrate to Europe . Thousands of them do live along the entire northern shoreline of Morocco, from Tangier to Nador, from Berkane to Oujda, on the border with Algeria. They are displaced and stranded, stucked in a limbo for months or years. They do not have sufficient means to return home, or to tempt fate and pay a clandestine jump to the Spanish coast of Andalusia or to the exclave of Ceuta and Melilla.

This isn’t from the print story but the moment I saw the kids playing with the tire I instantly thought about it.
