Thousands of Migrants Remain in Ceuta Amid Ongoing Crossing Attempts from Morocco
In late July, approximately 72,000 migrants crossed from Morocco into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta, with around 2,000 to 8,000 remaining there in difficult conditions, many sleeping on beaches while awaiting decisions from Spanish authorities. Despite about 100 deaths during the crossing, some migrants, including families like Malika's, continue to gather in the Moroccan city of Fnideq, hoping for another chance to cross. Both Moroccan and Spanish authorities have increased security to prevent further mass attempts.
