Amidst escalating political and social tensions, the leader of Ceuta - a Spanish territory in North Africa - has urged for the establishment of an internment center to house thousands of asylum seekers and undocumented migrants who have flooded its streets following a mass influx from Morocco last month. Juan Jesus Vivas, Mayor-President of Ceuta and a member of Spain's conservative Popular Party, advocates for the immediate creation of such a facility to manage the ongoing crisis effectively. The surge of asylum seekers and migrants, estimated by Spanish authorities at 80,000, has put a significant strain on the resources of Ceuta due to the growing number of people struggling to access essential services like food, water, shelter, and sanitation. This situation, deemed "unsustainable" by Mayor Vivas, has sparked a contentious political battle between Spain's central government and regions controlled by conservative parties, with disagreements over how to handle the remaining unaccompanied children. Protests against the handling of the migration crisis have also erupted among local residents, numbering around 5,000, who feel their safety is at risk. In response, the Spanish government has promised to increase police and troop numbers in Ceuta by 40 percent, with the deployment of additional civil guards.
