Moroccan Migrants Swim to Ceuta as Spain Calls Army
More than 1,500 Moroccan migrants swam to the city of Ceuta, which is located on the Mediterranean Sea and is under Spanish administration, prompting a deployment of the Spanish army. The crossing of migrants over the border without permits is occurring at a high rate, with most of them concentrated on the short distance between the Fnideq beach and Ceuta (2-3 kilometers). Ceuta's governor, Juan Jesús Vivas, stated that the situation constitutes a humanitarian and social emergency, warning that if the flow continues at the same pace, Ceuta could be pushed back into the crisis conditions it experienced in May 2021.
