Morocco Tightens Ceuta Border Security Amid Calls for New Migrant Crossing
Following a mass migrant crossing into Spain's North African enclave of Ceuta in late July, Morocco has tightened border security amid social media calls for another surge. Spain's authorities have closed the border and canceled leave for security personnel to prevent new attempts. Spanish officials report that most migrants have returned to Morocco, with around 10,000 remaining in Ceuta. Both countries continue diplomatic efforts to manage migration and address misinformation driving crossings.
