Ceuta, one month after mass arrivals, still an emergency: NGO complaint: 'Poor housing, unaccompanied minors and institutional violence'

One month after mass arrivals of migrants in Ceuta, Spain, the humanitarian crisis remains unresolved, according to NGOs working on the ground such as No Name Kitchen and Border Resistance. The temporary accommodation center CETI was already overwhelmed before the July influx, leading to the creation of two new temporary shelters in Loma Margarita and Embolsamiento. These facilities aim to relieve the informal encampments at Trampolín Beach and Loma de Colmenar, but authorities emphasize that entry into these new sites is voluntary. Meanwhile, local authorities led by the Popular Party continue to push for mass deportations back to Morocco and increased border controls. The situation has been further complicated by protests from some residents who have blocked aid convoys from the Red Cross and attacked informal migrant settlements, resulting in police interventions.
