Spain demonstrates for Ceuta to remain SpanishThe government delegation said about 50,000 gathered in Madrid; critics accused Sánchez’s government of being lenient toward Morocco.
- In Ceuta, thousands demanded normality and reaffirmed the North African enclave’s status as part of Spain.
- Government figures say at least 72,000 migrants arrived during the final two days of July; about 5,000 were still there a month later.
- For legal reasons, Spain must assess each asylum application individually, so the procedures could take weeks or months.
- El País reported that police used tear gas and rubber bullets; four demonstrators, including two minors, were arrested.
Ceuta is Spanish and will not be left alone— Said by Madrid Mayor José Luis Martínez-Almeida during Ceuta-related demonstrations, asserting that Ceuta belongs to Spain and will not be abandoned.
