  • Spanish authorities monitor social media chatter about another Ceuta mass migrant crossing ahead

    Spanish authorities are monitoring social media posts that suggest a potential online campaign to mobilize another mass migrant crossing into the Spanish-controlled territory of Ceuta next week.

    More than 72,000 people crossed illegally into the exclave last week, drawing global headlines and condemnation from world leaders including President Trump and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. Of those, 70,000 have since been returned to Morocco, a Spanish Interior Ministry spokesperson told CBS News on Friday.
