(ALJAZEERA)Spainish enclave Ceuta raises alarm as thousands cross border from Morocco

ALJAZEERA
Summary
Spain's North African enclave of Ceuta has declared a humanitarian and social emergency after 1,500–2,000 migrants crossed the border from Morocco over the past 10 days. In response, Spain will deploy 60 troops to reinforce border security, although the government rejected calls for a national emergency.

Many migrants entered by sea using inflatable devices, while others crossed by land. The surge follows a recent Spanish Supreme Court ruling that limits the return of migrants intercepted at sea near Ceuta and Melilla. Spanish authorities say human-smuggling networks are exploiting the ruling and are working with Morocco to curb irregular migration.
