The images of the tension during the attempt to evacuate thousands of migrants from the beaches of Ceuta

Spanish authorities conducted a five-hour operation on Friday to relocate thousands of irregular migrants from Ceuta beaches to temporary shelters, but most were unable to be accommodated due to limited capacity. Over 2,000 migrants returned to informal settlements like El Trampolín and Benítez after being turned away. The operation, involving around 170 police officers and 70 members of the Civil Guard, faced tensions as migrants attempted to access the shelter before security measures were fully deployed. Some migrants were shot at by police, while others were processed with identification checks and placed in two separate areas with a combined capacity of 1,700 people. Despite the government claiming the operation was orderly, labor unions criticized the lack of resources and planning.

It avoids taking sides on the broader migration policy debate, focusing instead on the operational challenges and human impact. The framing remains neutral,雖
