Spain will expel to Morocco 11 of the 12 people arrested for ambushing a patrol, in the context of the migration crisis that hit Ceuta. The city faces the consequences of the mass entry of thousands of people from Morocco.
The Executive of Pedro Sánchez is considering a reform of the immigration law to facilitate repatriations at the border. This measure comes as a response to the new migration crisis that caused unprecedented pressure on the Spanish border.
The Spanish authorities arrested 12 people suspected of having ambushed a patrol during the period of tension in the city. Of these, 11 will be expelled to Morocco, while authorities assess the fate of the twelfth detainee.
The situation in Ceuta represents a significant challenge for the Spanish government, which seeks to balance border control with humanitarian obligations in the face of the influx of thousands of people.
