"We'll see you there on August 15." Thousands of Moroccans are debating on Facebook and WhatsApp like this whether there will be a new mass entry into Ceuta.
On the networks most used by Moroccan youth, advice, teasing and requests about a possible assault on the border in the coming days are crossing.
"Most of the guys who are sharing stuff about August 15th to launch themselves at Ceuta, I swear they won't get anywhere," says a message on Facebook in a group of "people interested in migration from Morocco to occupied Ceuta" with nearly 23,000 members and which has grown by more than 6,000 in the last week, according to the platform's own data.
This message is just one example of the hundreds this newspaper has seen, mostly on WhatsApp and Facebook, talking about a possible new mass entry on August 15. Thousands of young Moroccans debate whether it is real, whether it's worth it, whether it's viable or if it's all just to deceive minors. "Is your life so cheap? Leave the people of Ceuta in peace.
That's enough: the young people who went and those who have disappeared, their parents are consumed," the message continues.
