BLUF. Recent mass migration activity at the Ceuta border is likely being facilitated by social media mobilization, presenting localized border security challenges for Spanish authorities without immediately indicating a broader systemic threat.
Observed Item
Social Media Drivers and Border Security Dynamics Amid Mass Migration Event in Ceuta
STATUS: ELEVATED · CONFIDENCE: MODERATE · ITEMS: 1 · MAX RISK: 0 · AVG RISK: 0 · PRIMARY COUNTRY: Spain
Observation. A transcript from a media organization details a large-scale irregular migration event in Ceuta, Spain, in which individuals reportedly crossed by land and sea from Morocco. The report notes that migrants cited social media videos claiming the border was open, while local authorities are currently deploying physical maritime barriers to manage containment in accordance with recent Spanish Supreme Court rulings.
Assessment. The rapid dissemination of social media content promising lenient entry conditions likely functions as a significant mobilization multiplier for irregular migration. The media framing of the event using terms such as 'invasion' and focusing on 'military-aged young men' indicates an effort to shape domestic political narratives, which is assessed with moderate confidence to potentially exacerbate societal polarization and complicate bilateral border management.
Strategic significance. The convergence of digital rumor amplification with physical border vulnerabilities introduces complex challenges for Spanish and broader European security architectures. Future migration management will likely require synchronized responses addressing both physical perimeter security and digital counter-messaging.
PMESII dimensions engaged:
- Information — Migrants reportedly mobilized after viewing social media videos claiming the Spanish border was open and offering pathways to citizenship.
- Political — The transcript cites recent Spanish Supreme Court decisions regarding maritime returns as a complicating factor in the state's immediate repatriation efforts.
- Economic — The transcript notes that local hotels have faced booking cancellations as a secondary effect of the border situation.
ASCOPE exposure:
- Areas — Ceuta serves as the primary geographical locus for the documented border crossings from Morocco into Spanish territory.
- Structures — Maritime breakwaters are being reinforced with buoys to establish a physical containment barrier for administrative processing.
- Organizations — The Civil Guard, Navy, and public company SASAMAR are reportedly coordinating the deployment of physical barriers at the border.
Key Judgments
- Social media platforms are likely serving as the primary accelerant for coordinated migrant mobilization toward the Ceuta border, assessed with moderate confidence.
- Spanish border security forces will probably maintain the capacity to manage the current localized influx without requiring significant military augmentation.
- The absence of coordinated kinetic escalation suggests this event is consistent with opportunistic migration rather than state-sponsored hybrid disruption.
What to Watch (Next 24–48h)
- Fluctuations in migration-related social media traffic or the emergence of specific mobilization hashtags targeting the Ceuta or Melilla enclaves.
- Deployments of additional Spanish Guardia Civil or Moroccan border security forces to the immediate border zone.
- Official diplomatic messaging between Madrid and Rabat indicating potential shifts in bilateral border enforcement cooperation.

[0:00–0:06]¿Ves la islamización del país europeo? Sí, creo que sí. ¿Crees que[0:06–0:09]es una buena cosa? Sí, es una buena cosa. Normal. Una amenaza para España es[0:09–0:14]todo lo que estamos pasando. Ellos, ellos, ellos, ellos, todo es una amenaza para España.[0:14–0:19]Nadie de los musulmanes queremos gente terrorista. Eso no son musulmanes de verdad. Es todo[0:19–0:25]mentira. Ves como las televisiones vienen aquí y realmente te digo la verdad, como las[0:25–0:27]cadenas, las televisiones, los medios de comunicación La cadena, la televisión, la medios de comunicación[0:27–0:28]mienten acerca de lo que está ocurriendo aquí.[0:39–0:45]Esto es un peligro, un peligro absoluto a la seguridad europea,[0:46–0:51]a la seguridad española. El CELTA ha sido abierto hoy.[0:52–0:55]I say I will go. Yo diría que voy a ir. ¿Cómo le ha afectado[0:55–1:00]personal? How has the migration crisis affected personally? No, absolutely.[1:05–1:11]Alex Salavoie for Rebel News reporting from downtown Ceuta. We are here to speak[1:11–1:16]with local residents about the invasion that recently overwhelmed this small Spanish[1:16–1:22]city. More than 60 ,000 military -aged young men entered Ceuta, crossing[1:22–1:26]illegally. Each young man entered Ceuta, crossing illegally from Morocco, by land and by sea.[1:30–1:36]Many of the migrants we interviewed admitted that they had seen videos[1:36–1:42]circulating online claiming that the border was open and that they could enter Spain[1:42–1:47]and receive citizenship. That message spread rapidly and thousands[1:47–1:53]rushed toward the border at once. Several migrants also told us[1:53–1:58]that Moroccan police facilitated their crossing. So why did so many[1:58–2:04]believe they could simply enter Spain? Spanish Prime Minister Pedro[2:04–2:09]Sanchez's weak immigration policies have sent a dangerous message. Cross the[2:09–2:15]border, enter illegally, and Spain may reward you with accommodation, public[2:15–2:21]services, and eventually legal status. Many of the migrants openly describe Spain[2:21–2:27]as generous. Do you believe that Spain and all the Western countries as we[2:27–2:32]call them, like European countries, do you think they are too generous? Do you think[2:32–2:38]they give too much easier citizenship and benefits? Do you think they are too[2:38–2:42]generous? Yeah, I think so. But Spain, I think the number one in the world,[2:43–2:48]the amazing country. and Pedro Sanchez is a very good man for helping the[2:48–2:54]foreign people from Morocco, Algeria, the Sudan. So that's[2:54–2:59]what's happening right now, just for people to go to Spain, because they're[2:59–3:05]looking for a new job, a new future. So I[3:05–3:09]think maybe next time, maybe we'll come to Spain. Quizás la próxima vez llegará[3:09–3:15]a España a la Suprema de España otra vez. Y las decisiones[3:15–3:21]de la ley recientes han dado más razón para creer que estarían[3:21–3:24]permitidos de permanecer. La ley de la ley de la Suprema de España recientemente rígida[3:24–3:30]que los migrantes que entraron por el mar no pueden ser automáticamente sujetos a retornos[3:30–3:36]inmediatos. Hemos solicitado a la empresa pública SASAMAR,[3:36–3:39]también en colaboración con... a la empresa pública Sasanar, también en colaboración con la Armada[3:39–3:45]y por supuesto también con la Guardia Civil, el despliegue de boyas en el espigón,[3:45–3:50]entre otras cosas, para dar cumplimiento a la sentencia del Tribunal Supremo y al menos[3:50–3:55]crear una barrera de contención, una barrera física, en términos al menos visuales,[3:56–4:01]para que desde el punto de vista administrativo se pueda facilitar la repatriación en frontera,[4:01–4:06]dando por tanto cumplimiento a la sentencia del Tribunal Supremo.[4:28–4:33]in Spain but potentially to every European country these migrants[4:33–4:39]may attempt to reach next. We spoke with local residents about how this[4:39–4:45]crisis has affected their lives, their businesses and their sense of safety. We[4:45–4:51]also encountered several of the illegal migrants themselves and questioned them directly[4:51–4:56]about how they entered, who encouraged them to come and where they intend[4:56–4:57]to go next you are about to hear what they told us and in intend[4:56–5:02]to go next. You're about to hear the meantime please[5:02–5:07]visit migrant reports .com if you believe in unfiltered professional[5:07–5:13]underground journalism please consider chipping in to help us continue bringing[5:13–5:17]you the stories the mainstream media refuse to tell[5:22–5:27]Han cancelado todo los hoteles, pero no va a venir ningún[5:27–5:31]turista porque todo el mundo tiene miedo. Aquí en Ceuta consideramos que es algo que[5:31–5:37]está orquestado. No es lo normal. En 2021 hubo una entrada, pero fue menos masificada[5:37–5:40]que esta. Y esta, por lo que nos están enviando a los que vivimos aquí,[5:40–5:42]es algo que está orquestado desde Marruecos.[5:49–5:54]A lot of illegal migrants, like around 60 ,000, like you mentioned, they are coming[5:54–6:00]and we don't know if they are people that have murdered, have committed crimes in[6:00–6:04]their origin countries, and we are absolutely ashamed of this situation.[6:16–6:19]Esto pasó una vez en la cuarentena y ahora ha pasado de segunda vez y[6:19–6:25]no se ha acogido imprevisto. Pues que fue una deja de defunciones por parte de[6:25–6:31]nuestro gobierno, porque otras veces ha habido intentos para pasar, pero han sido[6:31–6:36]frustrados en la misma frontera. En esta ocasión ha sido algo histórico. Yo tengo casi[6:36–6:41]40 años y nunca hemos vivido nada así. En el 2021 hubo un intento, pero[6:41–6:45]no fue tan grande, entonces nos sentimos desamparados.[7:02–7:06]¿Qué haces para la policía?[7:09–7:15]سهل علينا العبار ولكن ما فهمتش علش تخلونا هنا يبقوا بعض المرات يبغوا[7:15–7:18]يخرجونا ويبغوا يطبقوا علينا العنف Sí, es fácil. No entiendo por qué no entendí. أكي[7:18–7:24]قد استرابخار المرويكوز نو المرويكوز نوات رابعة تنسك الروبار أو[7:24–7:30]أصير آلغو سابس نصدرسني كوريموس رابعة كوريموس رابعة[7:30–7:35]كوريموس رابعة كوريموس سيودار مي فاميليا اكي ميخور[7:35–7:40]بصراحة الرئيس ديال إسبانيا يتعامل مع المواجرين واحد شوية Do you believe that we are[7:40–7:46]seeing an Islamization of European country? We are seeing in England, in[7:46–7:51]Germany, more and more Muslim people are moving into those countries, and we are seeing[7:51–7:57]an area that is only Muslim. Do you see an Islamization of the European country?[7:57–8:01]Sure, yeah. I think so, yeah. Do you think it's a good thing? Yeah, it's[8:01–8:05]a good thing. Normal. Do you think those countries should be Islamic? ¿Quieres ir islámico?[8:05–8:11]Sí, quizás, quizás sí. Yeah, yeah, maybe. Yeah? Como Francia y Alemania y... Sí,[8:11–8:16]creo que sí. Dice que quiere islamizar la Europa. Yo no veo eso, la verdad,[8:16–8:21]sinceramente. Cada uno puede vivir su religión y no pasa nada. Primero, no es nada[8:21–8:27]nuevo. Ha ocurrido en otras muchas ocasiones, muchas digo. No solamente una.[8:27–8:32]Y después habrá que ver, desde el punto de vista de los que han pasado,[8:32–8:38]probablemente no tienen trabajo, no tienen futuro, no tienen una vida como les gustaría[8:38–8:43]tener y quieren ir a Europa, al paraíso. probablemente no tienen trabajo. Un problema,[8:43–8:49]un desastre, un desastre. En redes sociales ha habido un llamamiento extensivo[8:49–8:55]y la manera en la que se ha dejado entrar a las personas[8:55–9:00]no es que sea algo que haya sido improvisado. Ha sido improvisado, la frontera está[9:00–9:01]abierta, las autoridades marroquíes no han puesto medidas adecuadas La frontera ha estado abierta, las[9:00–9:06]autoridades marroquinas. y en consecuencia[9:06–9:11]las autoridades españolas aquí en Ceuta no estaban enteradas de[9:11–9:15]la movilización de 60 o 70 mil personas, algo que nadie se cree, por lo[9:15–9:20]menos yo no me lo creo. ¿Tienes alguna historia personal que te ha pasado o[9:20–9:25]a algunas personas que conoces? Los migrantes[9:25–9:31]entraron en una casa y el propietario local de la casa[9:31–9:37]salió con una gana para defender su propia casa de los migrantes[9:37–9:42]y la policía tenía que venir porque la situación era tan difícil y estaban[9:42–9:48]haciendo mucho ruido, había mucha inseguridad en esa situación. Todo[9:48–9:54]el mundo con miedo, los familiares encerrados en casa, no sabíamos lo que pasaba.[9:55–9:59]entonces ver a tanta gente aquí dentro, después entrando a las casas,[10:00–10:06]pasándolo mal, la gente, todo el mundo que si robando, que si querían comprar,[10:06–10:11]después la gente decía que tenía su dinero, no valía su dinero. Entonces pues hemos[10:11–10:14]estado viendo a ver si ya venía el ejército, tardaron 24 horas en sacar al[10:14–10:18]ejército, y bueno al final parece que poco a poco se está volviendo a la[10:18–10:23]normalidad, pero con miedo. Normal, but with fear. We feel abandoned. Nos sentimos abandonados. How[10:23–10:28]did you heard to come? Just with my[10:28–10:34]phone. So you saw? Yeah. Video? Yeah, yeah. And Facebook or[10:34–10:40]Instagram. What did they say on the video? They say, Ceuta,[10:40–10:46]being open today. I say, I will go. لا أنا[10:46–10:52]ما بغيش أرجع المغرب فيها يدلوا فيها بزاب المشاكل ولا[10:52–10:56]قلسيات مشي الحابس بزاب الحوايج وما كراناش[10:56–11:01]الدولة الأوروبية تدير معناش يحل سيفتنا على بر[11:12–11:17]أشخاص أشخاص ومعيشة مرويكوس[11:17–11:21]لا يوجد شيء صراحة أنا كان هاجر[11:22–11:28]وهاجر من أجل معيشة كريمة لو كانت معيشة كريمة في[11:28–11:34]المغرب لو وجدت معيشة كريمة في إسبانيا سأعيش في إسبانيا لو وجدت[11:34–11:40]معيشة كريمة في ألمانيا جميع الدول أي دولة تعطاني واحدة عيشة[11:40–11:46]كريمة We are seeing[11:46–11:52]more mosque and more like, you know, people want sharia court and sharia[11:52–11:56]law in certain area like in England. Do you think it's a good thing? Yeah,[11:56–12:02]yeah. Well, I think that it's very bad, right? But it's normal[12:02–12:07]because they have opened the border. They have opened the border and the people have[12:07–12:12]entered. La gente ha entrado. Aquí se ha liado mucho porque mucha gente ha hecho[12:12–12:14]cosas malas, no todo. And here it's a lot because there are... Hay gente que[12:14–12:20]ha hecho cosas buenas, pero todo muy mal, muy mal. Racista,[12:21–12:26]todo. Igual les gustaría si estuvieran más cerca a los Estados Unidos. Y desde el[12:26–12:32]punto de vista de España, es algo molesto. Es algo que, aunque[12:32–12:36]comprendamos y lo recibamos bien, es algo que no es. Y lo recibamos bien, es[12:36–12:42]algo que no tiene mucho sentido, la convivencia. No va a venir ningún turista, yo[12:42–12:47]tengo restaurante y ya le digo, a mí me[12:47–12:51]vienen la gente de Ceuta y demás, pero no van a venir afuera, la feria[12:51–12:56]es que ha afectado en todo, en todo, en todo. Hay gente sin salir, nosotros[12:56–13:00]salimos, pero hay gente sin salir de sus casas, hay gente que la han entrado[13:00–13:03]en sus casas. Ves como las televisiones vienen aquí y... ¿Ves cómo las televisiones vienen[13:03–13:08]aquí y realmente te digo la verdad, cómo las cadenas, las televisiones, los medios de[13:08–13:14]comunicación mienten acerca de lo que está ocurriendo aquí? Yo soy abogado, conozco muchísima gente[13:14–13:18]de Marruecos, porque son clientes míos, que están en busca y captura internacional, pues han[13:18–13:23]pasado a teuta. Han venido gente con delitos en España graves y gente con[13:23–13:26]delitos en Marruecos que han venido de aquí, pero eso no se han ido, eso[13:26–13:30]se quedan. En cuanto a los números que dice la tele, no, se han quedado[13:30–13:34]en Ceuta 2 .000, 3 .000, 5 .000. Yo tengo amigos míos que están en[13:34–13:37]las patrullas militares, que están en los cuerpos de seguridad del Estado y hablan más[13:37–13:39]de 12 .000 personas que se han quedado en Ceuta. Yo no sé si la[13:39–13:45]ciudad tendrá capacidad para movilizarse contra esas personas y abastecerlos y si a posteriori tanto[13:45–13:51]España, la península o la Unión Europea va a tener capacidad de quedarse con ellos[13:51–13:53]y darle un futuro, que eso es lo que dicen, que vienen aquí por un[13:53–13:59]futuro. Entonces todo lo que ha pasado, lo hemos pasado mal. pero a día de[13:59–14:03]hoy, como cualquier catástrofe, estamos siguiendo adelante.[14:48–14:53]Para el resto de Europa, en cuanto a entrar a personas que no tienen, digamos,[14:54–14:59]papeles y que pueden cambiar la demografía de forma muy rápida, pues también. Y creo[14:59–15:04]que regresar aquí. ¿Que si pueden regresar? Un segundo.[15:05–15:11]Creo que si le dan, digamos, subvenciones y dinero al reino de Marruecos,[15:11–15:17]como ahora creo que está diciendo Von der Leyen, probablemente vuelvan a intentarlo. You're Moroccan.[15:17–15:22]Do you believe that Ceuta and Melilla are Moroccan land?[15:23–15:29]Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you think Morocco should conquer back those[15:29–15:31]lands? Yeah, I think so.[15:42–15:48]طريقة قانوني ليس قادودية يجب أن يطبقوا بعض العقلية لكي[15:48–15:53]نصلوا إلى مستقبل الذي يريد أن نقوم بالعقلية يجب أن نصل إلى هنا من الأول[15:53–15:59]أن العيشة في المغرب شوية قاسحة أنا قريشة شوية عندي[15:59–16:04]إجازة في القانون يعني إجازة في القانون ترفقوا باربيرو[16:05–16:09]ومراكو لا يوجد الفلوس في المغرب لا يوجد الفلوس كيف حلتها في القانوني؟ ¿Qué ha[16:09–16:15]afectado personalmente la crisis migratoria? كيف حلتها في القانوني؟ Nada, en absoluto.[16:15–16:21]No, no, no. ¿Nada? No. Yo voy ahora a mi médico y fui al médico.[16:21–16:27]Cuando ocurrió, no, algo más molesto puede ser, pero[16:27–16:32]no. La verdad, hemos pasado un par de días sin comida,[16:33–16:39]sin comprar nada, porque está todo cerrado y muy mal, la verdad. Todo muy negro,[16:39–16:45]estamos todos... los ceutíes, que vemos todo muy negro. Ahora mismo, el preguntarnos ahora, hoy,[16:45–16:50]te vamos a decir todo malo. No vamos a decir nada bueno. Vamos a ver,[16:50–16:54]los que estamos aquí, pero también recibimos fuera de la península, pues parece en la[16:54–16:57]península, en terceros países, que es algo que se queda en Ceuta, pero no, realmente[16:57–17:02]no podemos decir, a lo mejor, la palabra amenaza, pero sí es una situación de[17:02–17:04]desigualdad que se crea no solo en Ceuta, La verdad es que se crea no[17:04–17:05]solo en Ceuta, sino a nivel peninsular y a nivel europeo. sino a nivel peninsular,[17:06–17:07]a nivel europeo.[17:57–18:01]Una amenaza no creo que sea una amenaza porque de toda la vida ha habido[18:01–18:06]la inmigración. La inmigración de otros países, ya sea[18:06–18:11]Estados Unidos a España, España a Marruecos, Marruecos a todos lados. Entonces, no es que[18:11–18:17]yo lo vea como una cosa mala, pero, ¿qué te voy a decir? Sinceramente,[18:17–18:22]veo que lo que ha pasado podrían haberlo controlado mucho antes.[18:35–18:41]The last question that I showed them was[18:41–18:46]many Muslims are immigrating to Western countries despite having different views and values.[18:47–18:52]Do you believe that Muslims will slowly Islamize Western[18:52–18:57]countries? It's Western countries and they all agree and they all say yes yes Allah.[18:57–19:01]So there are any one who lives in Sabsa, one of them is the one[19:01–19:05]who lives in the country that has been a lot of people. One of them[19:05–19:07]is the one who lives in the city, and they all go for a long[19:07–19:12]time and they go to the central. is there for a few months[19:12–19:18]to stay in the central, the menuris. Then they go to Spain and they[19:18–19:22]go to Spain. أولاً يتجعون إلى الخيطة ويأتي بها في اسبانيا ويأتي على ناصحة من[19:22–19:28]الناية حالياً باقي يتخبّع هذه الأمور أموري مستعدة بكاته بسيط بسيط[19:29–19:35]طلبوا ربي بالخير والله يسهل على كل واحد يتخلنا نحن نسول سنة لأطلعنا الاسم ونحن[19:35–19:41]ندخل الإسلام لباقي البلدان بشوية بشوية أنا كيفما قلت لكم سأقول[19:41–19:46]لكم لأي قرآن يقول لكم دينكم ولا نادين نحن ندخل مغريب كيعيش معنا[19:46–19:49]النصارى يجب أن يعيشوا معنا النصارى ويجب أن يعيشوا معنا اليهود كيعيش معنا اليهود في[19:49–19:55]المغرب بزاف ديال الديانات كالجي يعني كفاقونس كسياحة وجهة سياحية هاد الوجهة[19:55–20:01]السياحية كتختلف الأجنس ديالهم وكتختلف الديانات ديالهم ولكن احنا[20:01–20:06]ما كان يعني ما غنمشوش معاهم ولا هم غنمشو معنا يعني الإسلام[20:06–20:11]الإنسان من اللي كيفكر مزيان وكيعرف كيف يرقب[20:11–20:16]للإسلام الإسلام أحد يزوين، أحد يأمر على السلام، يأمر[20:16–20:22]بالتعارف، يأمر بالمساعدة للآخرين[20:24–20:30]إذا رأيت مسيحياً دخل للإسلام[20:30–20:35]فليس لأننا قمنا بإدخاله بشوية بشوية لا لا[20:35–20:41]لأنه درس الإسلام وعرف بأن الديانة التي[20:41–20:42]سؤدي إلى الجنة Y se sabe que el diálogo que se va a ir a[20:42–20:48]la iglesia es el Islam. Algunos musulmanes han ido a los[20:48–20:54]pueblos y se han quedado en ellos y se han quedado en ellos. Nosotros queremos[20:54–21:00]hablar de ellos y no creemos nada. Gracias. ¿Qué opinas de las políticas migratorias[21:00–21:04]de Pedro Sánchez? Bueno, las políticas, me parece un poco, la verdad,[21:05–21:10]por una parte está bien, porque hay mucha gente que no podía trabajar. y ahora[21:10–21:15]puede trabajar con la regularización, pero también han metido muchos[21:15–21:20]delincuentes y que están haciendo muchas cosas malas en España, y eso lo pueden ver[21:20–21:26]todos los días, en Barcelona, Madrid, todos los días hay robos. Creo que considerar la[21:26–21:31]ciudadanía a más de medio millón de[21:31–21:36]inmigrantes ilegales los ha incentivado a cruzar la[21:36–21:41]fronte. ¿Los ha incentivado a cruzar la frontera? No lo creo, pero eso habría que[21:41–21:47]preguntárselo a ellos. No sé cuáles son las políticas migratorias de Pedro Sánchez. Las de[21:47–21:53]Europa, las de Occidente, son migratorias las de[21:53–21:57]Palestina, son migratorias las del Río Grande en los Estados Unidos.[21:58–22:02]Es que la gente tiene derecho a vivir mejor.[22:04–22:08]solucione porque no nos queremos ir de Ceuta, estamos muy contentos en Ceuta, pero no[22:08–22:13]tenemos ganas, no tenemos fuerza, no tenemos pena, tenemos todo, los sentimientos[22:13–22:19]encontrados. La situación es una situación de angustia, una situación de que te sientes[22:19–22:24]desamparado, una situación en la que ves que no tienes escapatoria o solución a[22:24–22:28]corto plazo. Si tú piensas que por venir aquí vas a tener la ciudadanía, estás[22:28–22:29]llamando a todo el mundo para que venga. Para tener la ciudadanía, estás llamando a[22:28–22:31]todo el mundo para que venga. Eso no ha sido positivo.[22:53–22:59]This important geopolitical point in the world map. We saw people[22:59–23:05]entering the inceptor, as you say, screaming, hello, Akbar.[23:06–23:10]Do you feel that it was a sign of conquest? They are conquering, like, the[23:10–23:11]land?[23:18–23:23]I don't know exactly, but I can't, I[23:23–23:29]don't have answer. في المغرب أصبح قليلاً حيث أننا أصبحنا لنجد الإسلام[23:29–23:35]الإسلام في الدولة المسلمة يعني مكة المكرمة نجد أن فيها بعض[23:35–23:40]التلابسات حالياً يعني الإسلام لم يعد تلك الإسلام الذي[23:40–23:46]كان في زمن بعيد لأن الإسلام يحرم الكثير من[23:46–23:50]الأفعال ونحن بصراحة المغرب أو العرب بصفة عامة أصبح Sin embargo, el Magharibe o el[23:50–23:56]Árabe, en Cifra Amma, nos dejamos de ser un montón de cosas de los[23:56–24:01]islamistas, pero nos dejamos de ser un poco más de[24:01–24:06]los islamistas. Nadie de los musulmanes queremos gente terrorista. Esos no son musulmanes de verdad.[24:07–24:12]Es todo mentira. Una amenaza para España es todo lo que estamos pasando. Ellos, ellos,[24:13–24:17]ellos, ellos, todo es una amenaza para España. Ahora mismo no nos sentimos protegidos.[24:21–24:26]And in the meantime, please visit MigrantReports .com.

Do you see the Islamization of the European country? Yes, I think so. Do you think it's a good thing? Yes, it's a good thing. Normal. A threat to Spain is everything we are going through. They, they, they, they, everything is a threat to Spain. None of us Muslims want terrorist people. Those are not real Muslims. It's all a lie. You see how the televisions come here and I really tell you the truth, how the networks, the televisions, the media The network, the television, the media are lying about what is happening here. This is a danger, an absolute danger to European security, to Spanish security. Ceuta has been opened today. I say I will go. I would say that I am going to go. How has it affected you personally? How has the migration crisis affected personally? No, absolutely. Alex Salavoie for Rebel News reporting from downtown Ceuta. We are here to speak with local residents about the invasion that recently overwhelmed this small Spanish city. More than 60,000 military-aged young men entered Ceuta, crossing illegally. Each young man entered Ceuta, crossing illegally from Morocco, by land and by sea. Many of the migrants we interviewed admitted that they had seen videos circulating online claiming that the border was open and that they could enter Spain and receive citizenship. That message spread rapidly and thousands rushed toward the border at once. Several migrants also told us that Moroccan police facilitated their crossing. So why did so many believe they could simply enter Spain? Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez's weak immigration policies have sent a dangerous message. Cross the border, enter illegally, and Spain may reward you with accommodation, public services, and eventually legal status. Many of the migrants openly describe Spain as generous. Do you believe that Spain and all the Western countries as we call them, like European countries, do you think they are too generous? Do you think they give too much easier citizenship and benefits? Do you think they are too generous? Yeah, I think so. But Spain, I think the number one in the world, the amazing country. and Pedro Sanchez is a very good man for helping the foreign people from Morocco, Algeria, the Sudan. So that's what's happening right now, just for people to go to Spain, because they're looking for a new job, a new future. So I think maybe next time, maybe we'll come to Spain. Maybe next time they will arrive in Spain to the Spanish Supreme Court again. And recent legal decisions have given more reason to believe that they would be allowed to stay. The law of the recently rigid law of the Spanish Supreme Court that migrants who entered by sea cannot automatically be subjected to immediate returns. We have requested the public company SASAMAR, also in collaboration with... the public company Sasanar, also in collaboration with the Navy and of course also with the Civil Guard, the deployment of buoys on the breakwater, among other things, to comply with the Supreme Court ruling and at least create a containment barrier, a physical barrier, at least in visual terms, so that from an administrative point of view, repatriation at the border can be facilitated, thereby complying with the Supreme Court ruling. in Spain but potentially to every European country these migrants may attempt to reach next. We spoke with local residents about how this crisis has affected their lives, their businesses and their sense of safety. We also encountered several of the illegal migrants themselves and questioned them directly about how they entered, who encouraged them to come and where they intend to go next you are about to hear what they told us and in intend to go next. You're about to hear the meantime please visit migrant reports .com if you believe in unfiltered professional underground journalism please consider chipping in to help us continue bringing you the stories the mainstream media refuse to tell They have cancelled all the hotels, but no tourists are going to come because everyone is afraid. Here in Ceuta we consider that this is something orchestrated. It is not normal. In 2021 there was an entry, but it was less crowded than this one. And this one, from what is being sent to those of us who live here, is something that is orchestrated from Morocco. A lot of illegal migrants, like around 60,000, like you mentioned, they are coming and we don't know if they are people that have murdered, have committed crimes in their origin countries, and we are absolutely ashamed of this situation. This happened once during the quarantine and now it has happened a second time and it caught us off guard. Well, it was a dereliction of duties by our government, because other times there have been attempts to cross, but they have been thwarted right at the border. On this occasion it has been something historic. I am almost 40 years old and we have never experienced anything like this. In 2021 there was an attempt, but it wasn't as big, so we feel abandoned. What do you do for the police? Crossing was easy for us, but I don't understand why they let us in here. Sometimes they want to get us out and they want to use violence against us. Yes, it's easy. I don't understand why I didn't understand. Here you can work, Morocco no. In Morocco there is no work, you have to steal or do something, you know, we don't even... we want to work, we want to work, we want to work, we want to help my family, here it's better. Honestly, the President of Spain treats immigrants somewhat well. Do you believe that we are seeing an Islamization of European country? We are seeing in England, in Germany, more and more Muslim people are moving into those countries, and we are seeing an area that is only Muslim. Do you see an Islamization of the European country? Sure, yeah. I think so, yeah. Do you think it's a good thing? Yeah, it's a good thing. Normal. Do you think those countries should be Islamic? Do you want it to be Islamic? Yes, maybe, maybe yes. Yeah, yeah, maybe. Yeah? Like France and Germany and... Yes, I think so. He says he wants to Islamize Europe. I don't see that, to be honest, sincerely. Everyone can live their religion and nothing happens. First of all, it's nothing new. It has happened on many other occasions, many I say. Not just once. And then we will have to see, from the point of view of those who have crossed, they probably have no job, no future, no life like they would like to have and they want to go to Europe, to paradise. they probably have no job. A problem, a disaster, a disaster. On social media there has been an extensive call and the way people have been allowed to enter is not something that has been improvised. It has been improvised, the border is open, the Moroccan authorities have not put in place adequate measures The border has been open, the Moroccan authorities. and consequently the Spanish authorities here in Ceuta were not aware of the mobilization of 60 or 70 thousand people, something that no one believes, at least I don't believe it. Do you have any personal story that has happened to you or to some people you know? The migrants entered a house and the local owner of the house came out with a desire to defend his own house from the migrants and the police had to come because the situation was so difficult and they were making a lot of noise, there was a lot of insecurity in that situation. Everyone was scared, family members locked in their houses, we didn't know what was happening. So seeing so many people in here, then entering houses, having a hard time, the people, everyone talking about stealing, or that they wanted to buy things, then people saying they had their money, their money wasn't valid. So well, we were waiting to see if the army was coming, it took them 24 hours to bring out the army, and well, in the end it seems that little by little things are returning to normal, but with fear. Normal, but with fear. We feel abandoned. We feel abandoned. How did you heard to come? Just with my phone. So you saw? Yeah. Video? Yeah, yeah. And Facebook or Instagram. What did they say on the video? They say, Ceuta, being open today. I say, I will go. No, I don't want to return to Morocco, they humiliate us there, there are a lot of problems, and if you stay, you go to prison, many things. And we wouldn't mind if the European state finds a solution for us, and treats us like individual people. As for living in Morocco, there is nothing, honestly. I was migrating and I migrate for a decent living. If there were a decent living in Morocco... If I found a decent living in Spain, I would live in Spain. If I found a decent living in Germany, all countries, any country that gives me a decent living. We are seeing more mosque and more like, you know, people want sharia court and sharia law in certain area like in England. Do you think it's a good thing? Yeah, yeah. Well, I think that it's very bad, right? But it's normal because they have opened the border. They have opened the border and the people have entered. The people have entered. Things have gotten very messy here because many people have done bad things, not everything. And here it's a lot because there are... There are people who have done good things, but everything is very bad, very bad. Racist, everything. Maybe they would like it if they were closer to the United States. And from Spain's point of view, it is something annoying. It is something that, even if we understand and welcome it, it is something that isn't. And we welcome it, it is something that doesn't make much sense, the coexistence. No tourists are going to come, I have a restaurant and I'm telling you, people from Ceuta and so on come to me, but they aren't going to come from outside, the fair is that it has affected everything, everything, everything. There are people not going out, we go out, but there are people not leaving their homes, there are people whose homes have been broken into. You see how the televisions come here and... Do you see how the televisions come here and I'm really telling you the truth, how the networks, the televisions, the media lie about what is happening here? I am a lawyer, I know a lot of people from Morocco, because they are my clients, who have international arrest warrants, well they have crossed into Ceuta. People have come with serious crimes in Spain and people with crimes in Morocco who have come from here, but those haven't left, those are staying. As for the numbers the TV says, no, 2,000, 3,000, 5,000 have stayed in Ceuta. I have friends of mine who are on military patrols, who are in the State security forces, and they talk about more than 12,000 people who have stayed in Ceuta. I don't know if the city will have the capacity to mobilize against those people and supply them, and if afterwards Spain, the peninsula, or the European Union is going to have the capacity to keep them and give them a future, because that's what they say, that they come here for a future. So everything that has happened, we have had a hard time. But today, like any catastrophe, we are moving forward. For the rest of Europe, regarding the entry of people who do not have, let's say, papers and who can change the demographics very quickly, well, that too. And I think returning here. If they can return? One second. I think that if they give, let's say, subsidies and money to the Kingdom of Morocco, as I think Von der Leyen is saying now, they will probably try again. You're Moroccan. Do you believe that Ceuta and Melilla are Moroccan land? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you think Morocco should conquer back those lands? Yeah, I think so. A legal way, not illegal. They must apply some rationality so we can reach a future. Whoever wants us to act rationally must realize that coming here from the start... that living in Morocco is a bit harsh. I studied a bit, I have a bachelor's degree in law, meaning a bachelor's in law, I work as a barber, and Morocco, there is no money in Morocco, there is no money. How did you resolve it legally? How has the migration crisis affected you personally? How did you resolve it legally? Nothing, absolutely nothing. No, no, no. Nothing? No. I am going to my doctor now and I went to the doctor. When it happened, no, it might be a bit more annoying, but no. The truth is, we have spent a couple of days without food, without buying anything, because everything is closed and it's very bad, to be honest. Everything is very dark, we are all... the
...people of Ceuta, who see everything very bleakly. Right now, asking us now, today, we are going to tell you everything is bad. We are not going to say anything good. Let's see, those of us who are here, but we also receive people from outside the peninsula... well, it seems on the peninsula, in third countries, that it's something that stays in Ceuta, but no. We really can't say, perhaps, the word "threat", but it is a situation of inequality that is being created not only in Ceuta. The truth is that it is created not only in Ceuta, but at the peninsular level and at the European level. But at the peninsular level, at the European level. A threat, I don't think it's a threat because there has been immigration all our lives. Immigration from other countries, whether it's the United States to Spain, Spain to Morocco, Morocco to everywhere. So, it's not that I see it as a bad thing, but what can I say? Honestly, I feel that what has happened could have been controlled much earlier. The last question that I showed them was many Muslims are immigrating to Western countries despite having different views and values. Do you believe that Muslims will slowly Islamize Western countries? It's Western countries and they all agree and they all say yes yes Allah. So there is anyone who lives in Ceuta, one of them is the one who lives in the country that has been a lot of people. One of them is the one who lives in the city, and they all go for a long time and they go to the center. They are there for a few months to stay in the center, the minors. Then they go to Spain and they go to Spain. First, they head to Ceuta and arrive in Spain, coming on advice from the end. Currently, these matters are still being hidden; my affairs are ready, with just a little crying. We ask God for goodness, and may God make it easy for everyone who joins us. We ask for a year for our name to come up, and we introduce Islam to the rest of the countries little by little. I, as I told you, will tell you that any Quran says to you, "To you be your religion, and to me my religion." We enter Morocco, Christians live with us. Christians must live with us, and Jews must live with us. Jews live with us in Morocco. Many religions come, I mean for vacation, as tourism, a tourist destination. In this tourist destination, their nationalities differ and their religions differ, but we don't, I mean, we won't interfere with them, nor will they interfere with us. I mean, Islam, when a person thinks well and knows how to observe Islam... Islam is something beautiful, it commands peace, it commands getting to know one another, it commands helping others. If you see a Christian convert to Islam, it is not because we brought him in little by little, no, no. It's because he studied Islam and knew that it is the religion that will lead to Heaven. And it is known that the dialogue that is going to go to the church is Islam. Some Muslims have gone to the towns and have stayed in them, and have stayed in them. We want to talk about them and we don't believe anything. Thank you. What do you think of Pedro Sánchez's immigration policies? Well, the policies, it seems a bit to me, to be honest... on the one hand it's good, because there are a lot of people who couldn't work and now they can work with the regularization, but they have also let in many criminals who are doing a lot of bad things in Spain, and you can see that every day, in Barcelona, Madrid, there are robberies every day. I think that considering granting citizenship to more than half a million illegal immigrants has incentivized them to cross the border. Has it incentivized them to cross the border? I don't think so, but you would have to ask them. I don't know what Pedro Sánchez's immigration policies are. The ones in Europe, the ones in the West are migratory, the ones in Palestine are migratory, the ones at the Rio Grande in the United States are migratory. It's just that people have the right to live better. We want it to be solved because we don't want to leave Ceuta, we are very happy in Ceuta, but we have no desire, we have no strength, we have no sorrow... we have everything, mixed feelings. The situation is one of anguish, a situation where you feel helpless, a situation in which you see that you have no escape or short-term solution. If you think that by coming here you are going to get citizenship, you are calling everyone to come. To get citizenship, you are calling everyone to come. That has not been positive. This important geopolitical point in the world map. We saw people entering Ceuta, as you say, screaming, Allahu Akbar. Do you feel that it was a sign of conquest? They are conquering, like, the land? I don't know exactly, but I can't, I don't have an answer. In Morocco, it has become rare, as we are starting to find Islam... Islam in the Muslim state, meaning Mecca, we find that there is some confusion in it currently. I mean, Islam is no longer that Islam that existed in the distant past, because Islam forbids many actions, and we, frankly, Morocco or Arabs in general, have become... However, the Moroccan or the Arab, in general, we have stopped being a lot of things from the Islamists, but we have stopped being a little bit more of the Islamists. None of us Muslims want terrorist people. Those are not real Muslims. It's all a lie. A threat to Spain is everything we are going through. Them, them, them, them, everything is a threat to Spain. Right now we do not feel protected. And in the meantime, please visit MigrantReports.com.
