Última hora de la entrada de inmigrantes a Ceuta, en directo | El último balance del Gobierno eleva a 72 el número de migrantes muertos
Ceuta intenta recuperar la normalidad con controles policiales y militares en las calles | Ralentizan el tránsito en la frontera de Melilla ante un intento de entrada
In the latest official report, the death toll among migrants has reached 72, according to a statement made on Sunday by Miguel Ángel Pérez Triano, the government delegate for Ceuta. Pérez Triano assured that efforts will be made to expedite the procedures for the individuals who entered Ceuta illegally in recent days, with the aim of carrying out the returns "as soon as possible."
Ceuta is striving to return to normalcy following the irregular entry of over 50,000 people from Morocco on Thursday. Although most of them have returned to their countries, security forces and the army continue to conduct street checks to ensure their departure from the city. The Beni-Enzar operation, the single operation in Melilla, has been ongoing for 24 hours since its reopening after a half-day closure due to the migratory crisis, which led to the reinforcement of Guardia Civil and National Police resources to restore normalcy to the border with Morocco.
Following an attempted entry, the military has slowed the flow of traffic. The president of VOX, Santiago Abascal, visited Ceuta after directly blaming Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez for the migratory crisis that occurred on Thursday.
