Government of Ceuta calls for calm after protests turn violent

RTP Notícias28 August 2026 at 06:20

The Government of Ceuta made a public appeal for calm after demonstrations by inhabitants of the Spanish city against the migration crisis turned violent. Ceuta is a Spanish city located in North Africa, and has been affected by a significant migration crisis.

The city's inhabitants demonstrated against the migration situation, protesting against the pressure caused by the arrival of migrants. The demonstrations eventually devolved into riots, leading the Government of Ceuta to intervene publicly to appeal for calm among the population.

The local government is thus seeking to control the situation and avoid further confrontations, following the violent incidents recorded during the protests.

Free People, the 'journalism' without "modern censorship"

Prime Minister Luís Montenegro has been one of the biggest critics of the media in Portugal, accusing it of promoting "disinformation" and exercising a "kind of modern censorship". Communication consultants heard by ECO/+M consider that Montenegro "chose the wrong angle" by attacking the media, suggesting this reflects failures in his communication strategy and crisis management. The article also analyzes Povo Livre, the official publication of the PSD, the party Montenegro leads, revealing that of the 55 issues since he took office for the second time, in June 2025, 52 feature Montenegro as the protagonist on the covers. Experts argue that doctrinal press, such as Povo Livre or Chega's Folha Nacional, should not be confused with informative journalism, calling for greater clarification of the status of these party organs.
