The Government is deploying a floating barrier at the border of Ceuta
The Supreme Court ruled that hot returns of migrants are only applicable to those who enter “by overcoming border containment elements, such as fences.”
Spanish security forces have deployed an inflatable barrier about 500 meters long next to the Tarajal border pier, between Ceuta and Castillejos, to slow down the arrival of migrants. Sources from La Moncloa believe that, in addition, this installation will allow for the return of those who cross it to Morocco, without violating the Supreme Court ruling that determined that such measure cannot be enforced on those who enter by swimming in this autonomous city and Melilla, as the magistrates concluded that express rejection is only applicable to those who try to enter “overcoming the established border containment elements, such as fences.”
