Spanish leaders have erupted after the massive migrant surge into Ceuta, accusing some European Union countries of showing a “selfish, unsupportive, and irresponsible” attitude during the border crisis.

Spain’s Interior Minister defended Madrid’s migration policy while calling for greater European solidarity and an emergency EU response. The crisis has intensified pressure on the EU’s external border strategy and relations with Morocco. Watch the full report for the latest developments from Ceuta and the broader European migration debate.
