Ceuta migrants demand asylum
Hundreds of recent migrants who entered Ceuta recently organized a protest on a beach, demanding that the Spanish authorities grant them the right to asylum instead of sending them back to Morocco. The number of migrants ranged between five and eight thousand after a mass border crossing two weeks ago, during which more than 72,000 people flooded into the city, which has a population of about 80,000. Most of them returned voluntarily. Many live in poor conditions on the beaches and in neighborhoods, amid the city's depleted resources. Ceuta is also facing a health crisis, with deteriorating healthcare services, and the government is being accused of not responding quickly enough to the rising pressure, which has led to the emergence of diseases and the spread of injuries related to violence. The protest demanded asylum rights, with participants raising Spanish flags and banners asserting that they do not wish to return to Morocco.
