A small boat with migrants arrives at La Restinga on the Canary island of El Hierro, Spain, on Wednesday Oct. 4, 2023. EU conversations came as Spain's Marine Rescue service reported Friday Oct. 6, 2023 it had intercepted 262 migrants in three boats approaching the Canary Islands located off the northwest coast of Africa. This week alone, the seven-island archipelago's tiny El Hierro Island, which has a population of some 10,000, has taken in more than 1,200 migrants arriving in open wooden boats that are believed to have departed from Senegal.
