Ceuta, the Spanish enclave in North Africa, is facing a severe migration crisis. Approximately 72,000 people entered the territory illegally, of whom at least 5,000 remain in the area.
The mayor of Ceuta will meet with European Union representatives to debate this migration issue. The meeting comes in a context of growing pressure on local authorities given the high number of people who continue to remain in the enclave.
The migration crisis in Ceuta has highlighted the challenges facing Europe regarding the control of the European Union's external borders, particularly in coastal areas close to the African continent.
