Spain permits soldiers in Ceuta to fire live rounds
The Spanish Ministry of Defense has confirmed that it has authorized its soldiers in the occupied city of Ceuta to use live ammunition in self-defense after they were targeted in attacks on military patrols, including shooting in cases of imminent danger. Rules of engagement and new guidelines have been implemented, permitting the carrying of only one weapon per patrol, which is restricted to use in self-defense against assaults such as being pelted with stones or Molotov cocktails. Previously, the troops were either unarmed or carried weapons without live ammunition. These measures follow assaults that resulted in minor injuries and the arrest of Moroccan nationals, raising legal debates about the role of the military and the limits of force use during the migration crisis in Ceuta.
