Chaos at Ceuta border as migrants surge toward Spanish territory

Spain announced it will deploy military units to reinforce police in the North African enclave of Ceuta after a surge of migrants crossed from Morocco by sea and breached border barriers on July 30. Video showed migrants arriving on flotation devices and pushing past overwhelmed police officers. Authorities said additional soldiers and specialized police units would be sent to help secure the border, while officials compared the scene to a major migration surge in 2021.
