  "account": "The number two at the Interior Ministry, Aina Calvo, Secretary of State for Security, has given written orders to the National Police and the Civil Guard to immediately begin applying hot returns to all migrants who try to reach Ceuta by swimming, overcoming the new floating barrier installed after the breakwater of El Tarajal after the massive entry of people last week. In an internal instruction accessed by EL PAÍS, Calvo points out that “border containment elements” similar to those at sea will soon be installed in Melilla, as she extends the legal empowerment to agents assigned to this autonomous city, although there is no record that work has begun to install it.",
