North African invaders have reportedly started to go back.
The migrant invasion of the Spanish enclave of Ceuta is developing, with Spanish Socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez declaring that Spain is ‘under attack’.
While Spanish intelligence sources accused Morocco of waging a ‘false flag’ operation against Ceuta, reports are saying that the two countries are collaborating, and that the invaders have started to leave.

Reuters reported:
“Spain said on Friday that it had reversed a huge rush of migrants into a Spanish enclave in North Africa, with thousands of people who had crossed the border by land and sea already heading back voluntarily.
Moroccan forces beat back crowds with batons and tear gas at the gates to Ceuta, trying to prevent more from storming across into the tiny Spanish territory that juts on a spit of sandy land into the Mediterranean from Morocco.
Spain’s Interior Ministry said around 50,000 people had crossed the border since Thursday morning, and estimated that around 25,000 had already turned and gone back.”

Rome also said it would strengthen border controls, following a similar move by France earlier on Friday

Such was the rage among several European Union countries, that even Globalist France will strengthen its controls at the Spanish border.
BFM reported:
“Paris in turn hardened its tone against Madrid. While about 40,000 migrants have entered Europe in recent days through Ceuta, a Spanish enclave in Morocco, Emmanuel Macron ‘has asked the Minister of the Interior to take all appropriate measures to strengthen controls at the border with Spain’, BFMTV learned from the head of state’s entourage.
‘Contacts are also underway with the Spanish and Moroccan authorities to ensure close monitoring of the situation and to strengthen coordination between the various services concerned’, the same source added.”
Also on the European reaction:
“Finland said on Friday it supported Italy’s proposal to close the Schengen area to Spain after the illegal entry of thousands of migrants from Morocco, saying Madrid ‘has completely failed to protect the external border of the Schengen area’.”
Face à la situation migratoire à Ceuta, j’ai été en contact avec le Président du gouvernement espagnol pour marquer notre solidarité et proposer toute aide nécessaire, y compris via Frontex.
Je salue la coopération en cours avec le Maroc,…

“In the face of the migration situation in Ceuta, I have been in contact with the President of the Spanish government to express our solidarity and offer any necessary assistance, including through Frontex.
I welcome the ongoing cooperation with Morocco, which has already enabled more than 40,000 returns from Ceuta to Morocco today.
The interior ministers are in contact to ensure close monitoring of the situation.
Ceuta does not benefit from freedom of movement to the rest of the Schengen Area. However, as of yesterday, I asked the Interior Minister to strengthen controls at our border with Spain if necessary: 4 units of mobile forces, aircraft, and drones have been deployed.
These measures serve to reinforce the arrangements we have taken since 2020 to better protect our border with Spain in close coordination, with joint brigades and a concerted action to combat illegal immigration.
These measures complement the European instruments adopted to ensure returns and implement the asylum and migration pact, with a 25% drop in irregular flows to the European Union last year and a continued decline on the Atlantic and western Mediterranean migration routes in 2026.
Solidarity and responsibility with our European partners to enforce our rules of firmness on returns and the protection of the Union’s external borders.
I reiterate here our solidarity with Spain, its government, and its people.”
