MADRID: Spanish customs authorities have released a list of items, which include special Ramadan candies, that Moroccan travelers will be prohibited from carrying through border crossings and ports to Spain.
The list of banned items includes sweets like shabakia and sellou, which Moroccans have habitually sent to their relatives around the world.
Spain has said the ban has been established in order to avoid confiscating and destroying them. According the Spanish custom authorities, these articles will not be allowed into Europe.
The Spanish authorities have allowed the travelers to carry one liter of olive oil through its border crossings in Tangier or the occupied Ceuta and Melilla.
