As the number of migrants arriving on the coasts of southern Spain increased, more and more migrants are heading north to the border city of Irun to try to cross the border with France and continue on their way. French authorities have reacted by placing police controls at all borders and causing many migrants to seek alternative route and methods to cross the border and to continue their journey to other European countries.
