Morocco and Spain have reopened the land borders between the north African country and the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla, two years after they were shut due to Covid restrictions and a major diplomatic row.
The enclaves on the Mediterranean coast in northern Morocco have the European Union's only land borders with Africa.
The gates opened shortly after 11:00 pm local time (2200 GMT) on Monday night, letting dozens of cars and queues of pedestrians pass in both directions.
At the Fnideq border post, smiles lit up the faces of the travellers crossing to see their families on the Moroccan side.
"I am happy that Morocco and Spain have restored their relations, it allows us to see our families," said one man in his sixties.
