Aznar viaja a Ceuta este jueves en plena crisis
El expresidente del Gobierno del PP visitó una vez la ciudad autónoma durante su mandato, antes del conflicto de Perejil
Spain's National Police chief, Francisco Pardo, has stated that a recent intelligence report does not attribute the planning or execution of the recent migrant crisis in Ceuta to Moroccan security forces. This comes after the report was submitted to the National Court as part of a preliminary investigation into the events. Pardo assured Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska of this fact, but the document, prepared by the National Centre for Immigration and Borders, has raised controversy due to its alleged depiction of Moroccan gendarmes and plainclothes agents directing migrants and issuing instructions near the El Tarajal breakwater.
The police analysis also suggests the incident was part of a counter-intelligence operation aimed at undermining Spain's security apparatus. The dispute over these claims has caused concern within the Spanish government, with the Interior Minister demanding clarification about why he was not informed about the report.
