SUR in English
The 630 migrants who were rescued by the Aquarius in the Mediterranean recently are now safely in Spain.
They arrived in Valencia on Sunday in three boats, including the Aquarius, and the world's press was there to meet them together with health professionals, interpreters and Red Cross volunteers.
Spanish prime minister Pedro Sánchez agreed to take the migrants in after a stalemate in which Italy and Malta refused.
They will receive free health care and will be able to apply for asylum.
