Spain officially announces that King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia will visit Ceuta and Melilla on October 13 and 14, 2026. This will be their first visit to the two cities in nearly two decades. The visit comes amid an unprecedented migration crisis the city experienced in July, when tens of thousands of migrants entered by sea, putting additional pressure on Spanish authorities and reigniting the debate over Moroccan sovereignty over the two cities. The visit is linked to Madrid's attempt to offer political support and strengthen cooperation with Rabat, especially regarding border security and migration management. The visit has sparked controversy over Spain-Morocco relations and the history of official visits that have previously led to diplomatic crises.
