This enclave serves as one of Europe's most closely watched external borders. Morocco disputes Spain's sovereignty over Ceuta and Melilla, its other enclave. These territories remain politically sensitive border regions for Europe and migrants.

Videos of migrants pouring into Spain’s Ceuta territory have gone viral on X, prompting criticism from Elon Musk and European politicians critical of migration.
