Poll: Spaniards Say Ceuta Crisis Could Spark Armed Conflict with Morocco
Von der Leyen’s gesture gave Feijóo a prominent spot as the EPP projected unity during Spain’s election campaign.
- On Tuesday, Spain's King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia visited the North African territory of Ceuta, a city experiencing an extended migration crisis that has revealed cultural and religious fault lines.
- Roughly 80,000 individuals crossed from Morocco in late July, spurred by false online rumours claiming Spain had opened the border; up to 15,000 migrants remained, leaving the city under severe pressure.
- A 2025 Caritas report found 44 per cent of Muslim households are marginalised, compared to 28 per cent of the city's overall population, while Luna Blanca spokesperson Halima Ahmed noted workers distribute 3,000 to 5,000 meals daily.
- Spain's royals attended a ceremony at a Muslim cemetery to memorialise the more than 140 migrants who died attempting to cross in July; as the crisis stretches into its third month, residents express exhaustion.
- Local resident Mustafa described Ceuta's image of coexistence as a "mirage," saying, "It's a tourism slogan, but it doesn't reflect reality," amid tensions among the city's 84,000 residents.
