Spain sends the army to Ceuta because thousands just walked in

Original version ·

Things are officially getting weird at the border as the military gets called in to handle a massive influx.

When your border is basically a tiny patch of land across from Morocco, you don't really have space for a crowd. Thousands of people just decided to cross into Ceuta at once, turning a routine migration issue into an immediate crisis.

Spain didn't even bother with the usual bureaucracy; they just sent the military in to handle the situation. It’s a pretty blunt way to say that the local police are completely overwhelmed.

The scale of this dash is honestly wild, and it's a grim reminder that a desperate situation at the fence usually ends in tragedy rather than a happy ending.

It turns out that when a border is this small, you cannot just pretend the fence is doing the work for you.

    The military? This is exactly why we need better diplomacy, not just more boots on the ground. People are dying out there, it's just sad.
