Five Boats Carrying 109 Migrants Intercepted off Murcia Coast During Weekend Surge

Spanish Supreme Court strengthens presumption of minority for migrant youths
In a 21 February ruling, Spain’s Supreme Court ordered that migrant youths must be presumed to be under 18 whenever medical age tests are inconclusive, reinforcing EU child-protection standards and overturning a lower-court decision from the Canary Islands. The judgment forces border and judicial authorities to give greater weight to origin documents and is expected to trigger case reviews and new protocols at key entry points. For employers and regional child-welfare agencies, earlier confirmation of minor status could speed access to education, apprenticeships and EU funding.
