Sanchez tells parliament no proof Morocco orchestrated Ceuta migrant surge
The FRANCE 24 segment reported on Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's parliamentary address stating there is no solid evidence that Morocco orchestrated the late-July border surge into Ceuta, attributing it instead to criminal networks and social media disinformation possibly amplified by various actors. It covered the scale of the influx—over 70,000 people crossing, most returned quickly but around 5,000 remaining—along with widespread protests in Spain demanding better border defense. Correspondent Sarah Morris detailed conflicting ministerial testimony on prior intelligence warnings, a judge-ordered police report suggesting Moroccan police may have allowed passage and that plainclothes officers appeared to guide migrants, and the political pressure on Sanchez's left-wing government.
