Migrants Found Hidden Inside Bed Mattresses

This is the astonishing moment migrants were discovered hidden inside bed mattresses strapped to a van in a desperate bid to reach Europe.

Shocking footage shows border officers slashing open plastic-wrapped beds strapped to a white vehicle at a check-point near Melilla on the north African coast and Morocco.

One man, dressed in a black and white t-shirt with black jeans, is seen emerging looking dazed as white filling spills from the mattress.

A second man in a blue Reebok t-shirt then comes out of a second mattress before walking around the corner and sitting down.
