Last update: 2 hours agoHumanitarian fallout in Ceuta: Ceuta’s president Juan Jesús Vivas told EU lawmakers the city is still not “back to normal,” with 3,000–5,000 migrants remaining after last week’s surge from Morocco. He described residents as “sad, helpless, anxious” amid public-order disruption and “a high risk to public safety,” and cited deaths during the crossing. Health and safety pressure: Reporting highlights overcrowding, trauma that lingers after the mass return, and ongoing emergency conditions around reception and basic services. Why it matters for Western Sahara: Several pieces link the Ceuta crisis to wider regional leverage involving Morocco, including claims tied to Western Sahara politics and cross-border cooperation.
