“Asalto a la valla de Ceuta”: la central de Madrid del CNI instó al jefe en Ceuta a avisar a la Delegación del Gobierno

On July 30 and 31, unprecedented levels of migration activity at Ceuta's border created significant tension, as numerous warnings were issued about the extraordinary situation. The despatch of over thirty confidential documents during this period only served to cloud the official account of events. The most notable clash so far has been between Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska and Defense Minister Margarita Robles regarding the actions of the Centro Nacional de Inteligencia (CNI).

Robles has since dismissed the government's reports, claiming the secret services did not adequately predict the severity and nature of the events on July 30. The CNI is reportedly troubled by a document issued by La Moncloa to the media, with the endorsement of the minister, stating that the secret services failed to anticipate the scale of the crisis on that day.
