Clashes and Protests in Ceuta Follow Mass Migrant Influx from Morocco
Tensions in Spain's North African enclave of Ceuta escalated into clashes between residents, migrants, police, and the military a month after over 70,000 migrants from Morocco arrived. Protests over security and hygiene concerns led to confrontations, including a migrant camp fire and an attack on a military vehicle. While most migrants returned to Morocco, thousands remain, living in difficult conditions. Spanish authorities face pressure to manage the situation amid differing migrant counts and upcoming elections.
