A group of young Sudanese migrants reportedly died after crashing into mountainous terrain while attempting to enter Spain from Morocco.
Reports said the migrants were killed instantly when they collided with rocky terrain during an alleged clandestine border crossing.
The exact method of the crossing has not been independently verified.
Moroccan and Spanish authorities have not officially confirmed the incident, and the number of victims remains unclear.
Human rights groups have called for an investigation and urged authorities to clarify the circumstances surrounding the reported deaths.
The incident underscores the dangerous routes many migrants take in hopes of reaching Europe as border controls tighten.
Sea and land crossings between North Africa and Europe continue to claim lives as irregular migration persists across the Mediterranean.
