Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
Spanish authorities in Ceuta, a city in North Africa, carried out their seventh security operation over the weekend, identifying 200 unaccompanied minors and repatriating 143 Moroccan migrants.
The operations focused on areas including Poblado Regulares and the Tarajal esplanade, with officials transferring adult migrants for identification and assessment of their status. After receiving information, 143 Moroccan citizens voluntarily returned to Morocco. The city of Ceuta coordinated with local authorities to provide shelter for the 200 unaccompanied minors.
However, non-governmental organizations raised concerns that some minors experienced homelessness after authorities demolished makeshift shelters. This recent operation brings the total number of voluntary returns of Moroccan citizens to over 12,000 following irregular stays in Ceuta.
