Arrimar el hombro ante la crisis de Ceuta: “El hartazgo de todos no va reñido con la humanidad”
Las asociaciones vecinales que han asistido a mujeres, niños y personas vulnerables comienzan a respirar con las primeras acogidas, pero todavía ven lejos el final de la crisis
Ceuta, a city grappling with a migrant crisis, has seen its residents respond in diverse ways. Some neighbors have rallied together to support the thousands of migrants residing in their neighborhoods, including vulnerable individuals such as women and children. Associations of residents, like those from El Príncipe, Sidi Embarek, and Loma Colmenar, have been active in providing assistance to the most disadvantaged for a month now.
They have organized efforts to help those in need, setting up in fitness centers or transporting migrants to the police or youth centers while mediating conflicts arising from the crisis among their neighbors. Their phones have been ringing non-stop, and they feel exhausted, yet they have persevered. The NGO Luna Blanca, dedicated to eradicating hunger and social exclusion in Ceuta's most vulnerable neighborhoods for over 35 years, is also involved.
Its spokesperson, Halima Ahmed, aptly sums up the sentiment of local leaders and the reasons behind these weeks of tireless effort: "The solidarity we all feel towards this situation does not contradict humanity."
