Elections Raise Alerts in Ceuta and Melilla
The article addresses the escalation of security alertness in the cities of Ceuta and Melilla by Spain during Morocco's parliamentary elections. Spanish forces have increased the deployment of police, Civil Guard units, and aerial surveillance means as part of monitoring potential large-scale crossings by migrants, exploiting the distraction caused by Moroccan forces during the voting process. Preemptive security measures have been activated, including field reinforcements and diplomatic communications, to combat the calls circulating on social media encouraging border crossings. This is done in close coordination between Madrid and Rabat, with nearly daily contacts. The measures reflect a new proactive level of security cooperation, aiming to balance the assessment of threat likelihood without overextending resources, relying heavily on Moroccan authorities' capability to monitor and intercept movements before they reach the borders.
