    The Wider Image: Migrants stuck in Mauritania after EU border

    Moktar Diallo, 42, poses after a day's work near the hut where he lives with three other colleagues on workdays, next to the open-air brick workshop where they work, on the outskirts of Nouakchott, Mauritania, February 27, 2025. Diallo, who left Mali in 2015 and is now stuck making bricks, is trying to dodge a police crackdown that has reduced the flow of irregular dinghies making the around 600-mile (970 km) crossing, which can take up to eight days. "Since the police started turning people back, everything has gone wrong," he said. REUTERS/Juan Medina
