Three witnesses who swam to Ceuta identify several Moroccan authorities pointed out for the massive entry

The Spanish Government returned 16 migrants to Morocco on Friday. They had arrived in a mass influx into Ceuta and were denied international protection by the Interior Ministry.

Their return was not a "voluntary return", but rather a forced one after the denial of international protection.
