Spain Blames Russia and Israel for Ceuta Tensions
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez accused Russia and Israel of spreading misinformation that contributed to the surge of migrants to Ceuta. He described Russian and Israeli networks, working in cooperation with far-right extremists, as having manipulated a judicial decree and spread rumors on social media, which prompted thousands to try to reach the Spanish enclave in northern Morocco. He affirmed that Spanish intelligence agencies did not accuse Morocco of involvement, while Israel rejected the Spanish allegations and condemned the "lies" and false accusations. On another note, Italy extended the Schengen Agreement for an additional 15 days amid the migrant wave to Ceuta, with Spain increasing support for the region by 168 million euros. The crisis continues as thousands of migrants remain in Ceuta, many living in harsh conditions, amid local protests over the consequences of the influx.
