Following a period marked by the largest mass migration in its history, the majority of the estimated 60,000 individuals who entered the Spanish territory in North Africa have since returned to Morocco. This mass movement has seen the people gradually exiting the area, allowing life within the exclave of Ceuta to return to a state of relative normalcy. On Sunday, routine patrols were conducted by Spanish police and army units throughout the streets of the city.
While the initial influx prompted significant activity, authorities reported that only small groups of migrants remained in the area. Most of those who crossed the border fence voluntarily returned to Morocco within a 48-hour period. Regarding the human toll of the migration, official figures were provided by government representative Miguel Angel Perez Triano.
He updated the count of fatalities to 72, revising a previously announced figure of 67. The rapid departure of the majority of the people suggests a stabilization in the situation within the exclave. The coordinated presence of Spanish security forces ensured the maintenance of order while facilitating the voluntary return of those who had crossed from Moroccan soil.
The current pattern indicates that the immediate crisis associated with the large-scale migration has subsided, returning the focus to routine governance within the exclave.
