El Gobierno de Ceuta acondiciona dos grandes instalaciones para reubicar a los 862 menores migrantes que atiende tras la crisis
La cifra de menores migrantes se ha cuadruplicado en apenas dos semanas, de unos 200 a mediados de julio a más de 800 en la actualidad, y las autoridades prevén que alcance el millar
The Government of Ceuta is preparing two large facilities to relocate the 862 migrant minors it is currently hosting due to the crisis. These actions aim to increase the reception capacity, utilizing an industrial building and a ship. Authorities believe there might be "some more on the street," though the exact number remains undetermined.
The Ceutian Executive assumes the minor population will continue to rise, nearing a thousand, and plans to request additional financial support from the central government to manage the emergency. For now, until these locations are adequately prepared, the children are residing in the city's existing installations, described by Councilor Alberto Gaitán, who oversees the minors' area, as cramped.
Gaitán confirms that those who slept outside the ship near the El Tarajal border have already been moved.
