The massive and sudden influx of 60,000 migrants into Spain’s enclave of Ceuta, located in the north of Morocco, has triggered a crisis for Spain, and the European Union.
How big an influx?
The numbers of migrants suddenly flowing into Ceuta is outsized for the territory’s population of 80,000.
Some 60,000 migrants have so far entered over the past two or three days, estimated the local regional president Juan Jesus Vivas.
Around 200 migrants were arriving “every minute”, according to Ignacio Cembrero, a journalist specialised in migration in North Africa.
