Ethiopians migrants that have been detained waiting for deportation in Madinah in Saudi Arabia camp have jumped over the walls to break into the adjoining Taibah University campus, said the city’s police department.
Brig. Fahd bin Amer Al-Ghanam, spokesman of the police, said 15 Ethiopians broke into the campus, but security officers managed to control the situation and took them back to the shelter.
Issa Muhammad Al-Qaiydi, spokesman of Taibah University, said the migrants did not harm anyone or caused damage to cars or buildings.
