Spanish authorities have begun implementing immediate deportation and return decisions for hundreds of irregular migrants who attempted to enter the occupied city of Ceuta from Moroccan territory, thus ending the hopes of hundreds of migrants to reach European lands after falling into the trap of misleading propaganda and calls targeting the encouragement of mass incursions via social media.
These steps come after close and effective security coordination between the Moroccan and Spanish authorities to control the situation on the ground and ensure that operations are secured according to applicable legal and humanitarian standards.
Press sources reported that direct return operations via the "Sebta Gate" crossing included more than 800 Moroccan nationals this week alone who participated in illegal infiltration attempts.
The decisions were not limited to Moroccan migrants alone, but also included large numbers of foreign migrants of various nationalities, most notably migrants from Algeria and Sudan, for whom final deportation procedures to their home countries have been initiated through approved legal channels and procedures.
These developments on the ground revealed the falsity of the rumors and incitement calls spread through some social media platforms, which led migrants to believe that lenient treatment or mass transit without legal consequences was possible.
The firm measures taken by the authorities of both countries have affirmed the strict stance against attempts to storm the dividing fence, emphasizing that illegal entry is followed by immediate return and deportation, which has led to the dissipation of what the deceived individuals knew as the "European dream."
Security agencies on both sides continue to enhance monitoring and field coordination to deal with any incoming attempts, and to secure borders and access points under the best conditions that guarantee the rule of law.
