Fishermen in standoff in Gibraltar

Spanish fishermen stage protests over artificial reef, latest move in an escalating diplomatic row over the territory.

Spain’s fishermen are protesting an artificial reef laid last month that disrupts their ability to fish in waters controlled by Gibraltar.

Britain has rejected talks with Spain over the issue of Gibraltar’s sovereignty and is only willing to discuss fishing practices.
