The central Government intends to “prioritize,” as Territorial Policy Minister Ángel Víctor Torres assured yesterday, the family reunification of unaccompanied migrant minors who remain in Ceuta after crossing en masse to the autonomous city on July 30 and 31. But this route, now prioritized over relocation to other autonomous communities, presents serious difficulties. Among them, the full cooperation of the countries of origin, but also the willingness of the minor to return to the place they fled from.

Las pescaderías Yunes in the central market of Ceuta are selling far below usual on a Saturday at nine. “Normal, elderly people no longer go out to shop or walk in the afternoons,” says a stallholder. Fátima is a security guard at the University Hospital, the only one in a city whose patience determines the governability of Spain. “My 20-year-old daughter does not go out after dark for fear, and in Ceuta life was on the street.” Third warning: Mercadona, Almadraba neighborhood, soldiers at the doors, carts overflowing. A couple of Muslim Ceutíes: “This is not going fast, when the cold arrives they won’t be able to sleep outdoors and hunger is very bad.”

The report has been submitted to the Supreme Court, which must now issue its own to be delivered to the Ministry of Justice for evaluation. The deputy prosecutor of the high court argues that the conviction has led the former number 1 of the public ministry to “intense and disproportionate extrapenal consequences.”
Catalan hospitals are planning organizational measures to counteract a potential decrease in activity due to the Ni un minut més campaign, through which numerous specialists have refused to perform care activities beyond their regular working hours, in demand of labor improvements. Metges de Catalunya (MC) attributes a significant increase in the surgical waiting list in Catalonia to this campaign, launched on June 1, while the Department of Health downplays this impression, arguing that the study period is too short to draw conclusions.
