Direct losses from the migratory crisis in Ceuta rise to 33 million euros

Diário de Viseu31 August 2026 at 09:00

The direct losses from the migratory crisis in Ceuta rose to 33 million euros, according to data that reflect the significant economic impact that the event had on the Spanish city.

The drop in consumption was one of the main factors that contributed to this economic loss, especially affecting local commerce and restaurants.

The absence of visitors during the critical period also played a determining role, with the tourism industry and associated services suffering a substantial drop in activity.

The perception of insecurity kept economic activity at minimum levels throughout the month of August, a period that would normally be of great commercial and tourist movement in the region.
