Crossings scheduled until 14:00 were cancelled, with the exception of the 20:00 one, the maintenance of which will depend on the evolution of weather conditions, the same source specifies.

 

This interruption of traffic is part of a series of disruptions recorded in recent days in the Strait of Gibraltar, in connection with the successive storms affecting the region.

 

Furthermore, maritime links between Algeciras and Tanger Med are continuing normally, according to port authorities.

 

Storm Martinho continues to impact several regions of southern Spain on Friday, with winds that could reach 61 km/h on the coast of Cadiz, placed on yellow alert for heavy swell.

 

No weather warning is, however, in force in the Strait area, according to the Spanish State Meteorological Agency.
