Ceuta: Spain slams "selfish" EU partners
France 24 [en]
Almost all of the migrants who entered Spain’s enclave of Ceuta had left by Saturday, according to officials. An estimated 60,000 migrants entered Ceuta from neighbouring Morocco over just a few days, with at least 67 people losing their lives in the attempt. Spain has announced plans to install a 500-metre-long containment barrier along the sea border. Meanwhile, a majority of EU countries have called for emergency talks in an open letter to the bloc’s interior ministers. Matthew-Mary Caruchet from our France24 International Affairs desk gives more details.
