Spanish police relocate hundreds of migrants from Ceuta beaches to tented area

Spanish police began relocating hundreds of migrants from the beaches of the Spanish enclave of Ceuta to a newly established tented settlement on Friday morning. The operation follows a massive influx that saw tens of thousands of people cross the border from Morocco in late July, overwhelming local facilities and prompting a rapid response from security forces.

Authorities say several thousand migrants remain in Ceuta after the recent transfers, and officials continue to monitor the situation while providing shelter and basic services. The police and humanitarian agencies are coordinating efforts to manage the population’s needs and maintain order as the enclave addresses the ongoing challenges posed by the large-scale arrival.
