Spain's Sánchez Says No Evidence Morocco Facilitated Ceuta Border Breach

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez told parliament on Thursday that Spain has seen no evidence "whatsoever" that Morocco planned or facilitated a mass border breach into Ceuta, the Spanish territory in north Africa.

Sánchez's remarks came in response to a police report, commissioned by a judge and widely cited in Spanish media, which alleged that Moroccan border forces had actively aided approximately 70,000 people in crossing the border in late July, according to the report.

The prime minister continued to defend Rabat's conduct despite the report's claims, according to the address to parliament.

The incident and the competing accounts have drawn attention amid broader scrutiny of Spain-Morocco border management and migration flows into the Spanish enclave.
