Migrants remained in makeshift shelters along Ceuta's shoreline on Sunday, pleading with Spanish authorities for formal accommodation and asylum after arriving from neighbouring Morocco. Footage from Sidi Embarek showed people sleeping and eating in shelters made from reeds, plastic sheeting and discarded materials, while others queued for aid under police supervision. Migrants described difficult conditions, including exposure to heat and cold, limited access to food and washing facilities, and drinking dirty water. One migrant, Adnan Menfas, said he had spent six hours swimming from Morocco before reaching Ceuta and appealed to Spain to grant asylum. Moroccan authorities said they had intercepted more than 148 people attempting to cross into Ceuta around Fnideq, while Spain reinforced security with additional police and Civil Guard personnel, maritime patrols and a barrier near the Tarajal breakwater. #ceuta #spain #migrantcrisis #migrationcrisis #migrants #asylum #asylumseekers #spainmigration #morocco #moroccoborder #ceutaborder #europe #europemigration #immigration #bordercrisis #migrantsurge #breakingnews #worldnews #europeanews #latestnews In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Stay connected with Times Now World for real-time global news and analysis: Read full coverage: https://www.timesnownews.com/world Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/timesnow.world Follow us on X: https://x.com/TimesNow_World #timesnowworld #worldnews #breakingnews
