Certainly within the next 24 hours, there's going to be that EU meeting of interior ministers.
They are going to be under enormous pressure to come up with some sort of, you know, these return hubs, whereas if people come in, they don't have the right to be able to stay, that they're returned to these hubs much more quickly.
Well, there's about 3,000 to 5,000 left.
They're being processed.
Eventually, they will be sent back.
But at the moment, Europe itself hasn't come up with any good return hub possibility.
But don't forget, Mike, they're all struggling with this thing, which is...
Whole of Europe has got an ageing population, plus they have a labour shortage.
And when you've got that and you've got people from the Sahel and Northern Africa who are young people who don't see any economic prospects in their own country, they're going to try their luck in Europe.
All right.
Essentially, the fires have been brought under control.
The economic fallout, yes, well, 7% of the region's economy is based on tourism.

But smoke from the fires could taint those grapes and they might have a bit of a...
bitter taste.
The other problem is there was two months of drought and these brutal heat waves.
So problem with water down there and also as you know, some of these grapes, they may just shut down in self-defense because not all of the vineyards have the water supplies to be able to water them and shriveled grapes don't yield good quality wine.
Good morning, Mike.
It was fairly dramatic, wasn't it?
That was 60,000 non-EU nationals crossing into that Spanish enclave in northern Africa.
