King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia Ortiz will visit the Muslim cemetery of Sidi Embarek during their trip to Ceuta on October 13th, according to local sources familiar with the schedule of the Spanish monarchs, EL PAÍS reports. The resting place of the victims of the massive influx at the end of July, the royal protocol team has already been inside the site to prepare for the visit on Tuesday.
The Monarchs will also stay in the autonomous city that day, following their official visit to the autonomous city, sources in the Royal House have informed. By making this decision, La Zarzuela aims to convey a message of "normality" in relations with a territory that neighboring Morocco claims as its own, similar to Melilla, which the Monarchs will visit the day after, on October 14th.
This will be the first time in democracy that a head of state spends the night in the autonomous city.
