The Government plans to deploy units of the Armed Forces to support and reinforce the work of the Civil Guard with the aim of maintaining security in the autonomous city of Ceuta.
Sources from Moncloa cited by Europa Press have explained that the mobilized military will remain under the coordination of the operations command and will be responsible for providing direct support to the agents of the Civil Guard.
The migration crisis that has erupted this Thursday, July 30, in Ceuta, with the entry of thousands of people who have managed to flank the border fence, is considered the most serious in the last five years, since in May 2021 Morocco relaxed controls and about 8,000 people accessed Spanish territory.
In the last 24 hours, the units responsible for border control in Ceuta have recovered from the sea the lifeless bodies of ten migrants. With these findings, the number of foreign individuals found dead in Ceuta's waters while trying to swim to the Spanish coast from Morocco rises to 38.
