One boat carried 280 people, authorities said.
Emergency services on the Spanish Canary Islands have said more than 500 migrants reached there in four large wooden boats in a span of 24 hours earlier this week.
Spanish Red Cross coordinator Jose Antonio Rodríguez Verona told The Associated Press he had not seen so many people in one boat since 2008, when 234 arrived in a single vessel. Spain’s interior ministry says nearly 15,000 migrants reached the Canary Islands by boat from January 1 to September 30 2023.
