La amenaza de un nuevo salto masivo este miércoles eleva a seis las alertas en Ceuta y Melilla desde la entrada de julio
Interior incorpora cerca de 150 de policías y guardias civiles al dispositivo de seguridad, que se suman al refuerzo fronterizo de Marruecos
A significant new attempt to cross the border en masse by irregular migrants is feared for this Wednesday, raising the alert level to six in Ceuta and Melilla, according to the interior minister's public statement on Monday. This marks the sixth such alert the security forces have faced since nearly 80,000 people swam across from Morocco to Ceuta on July 30 and 31.
Before this latest alert, coinciding with legislative elections in Morocco, social media and messaging channels had also posted calls for mass border crossings on August 8, 9, 12, 15, and September 20, according to Interior sources. The first three of these alerts had not been publicly reported until now, and during those days, no significant movements occurred at the border.
