Hundreds of migrants leave Ceuta amid hunger and conflict
Hundreds of migrants were forced to return from the Spanish enclave of Ceuta to Morocco due to their failed attempts to start a new life in Europe. Their hopes had evaporated because of hunger, high living costs, and the lack of migration opportunities. According to returnees’ testimonies, the main motivation was the videos circulating on social media and encouraging messages, but they faced the harsh reality that the borders were closed and the horizon was blocked. The migrants described the city as a prison, with tensions rising with the local residents, and some experienced assaults and expulsion. While some facilities have reopened, the area still suffers from widespread security pressure, and the migrant reception center is full. The returnees insist they do not want to go back to life in Morocco. Estimates indicate that around 60,000 people have crossed into Ceuta in recent days, amid heightened security alerts and strict measures by the Spanish authorities, amid international criticism of the humanitarian and security situation in the region.
