The Government of Ceuta is preparing two large facilities to relocate the 862 migrant minors it is caring for after the crisis.

The Government of Ceuta, overwhelmed by the massive arrival on Thursday, is trying to increase its reception capacity by reorganizing its facilities and preparing an industrial building and a warehouse. With these spaces, it seeks to shelter the 862 migrant minors it has been caring for since the massive arrival, although the authorities believe there may be "a few more on the street", a figure that has not yet been quantified.

The Ceutan Executive takes it for granted that the number of minors will continue to increase until it reaches around a thousand and plans to request a greater economic allocation from the central Government to face the emergency. For now, and until these places are suitably prepared, something they expect to achieve "in the next few hours or in the next few days", the boys are in the facilities available in the city, somewhat cramped, according to the Minister of Presidency, Alberto Gaitán, responsible for the area of Minors.

The minors who spent the first few hours sleeping at the door of a warehouse that the city has prepared near the El Tarajal border have already been relocated, Gaitán assures.
