The Juvenile Prosecutor’s Office of Ceuta has referred to the Court several complaints filed by unaccompanied minor migrants who claim to have suffered abuse, humiliation, and mistreatment in reception centers of the autonomous city’s protection network.
The PP has once again summoned in the Senate the ministers of Pedro Sánchez’s Government who did not appear in August to account for the management of the Ceuta crisis in the Upper Chamber.
The new immigrant camp set up by the Government on two plots in the port of Ceuta hung the sign “full” – in Spanish, English, and Arabic, so there would be no doubt – at noon yesterday after its just over 1,700 places were occupied in a few hours. Many did not make it, and after 50 days of living rough, their helplessness was joined by frustration and anger for having lost another opportunity.
Inflation is rising in the United States and Europe as a result of the visible increase in gas and oil prices after seven months of a wide-ranging regional war in the Middle East. The U.S. Federal Reserve has raised interest rates, going against President Donald Trump. The European Central Bank has moved in the same direction to try to stop this spiral. It is the cost of the Iran war, with a geographic focus on the Straits of Hormuz and Bab el Mandeb. The price increase especially affects diesel, an essential fuel for industrial economies. It is estimated that at this time the Middle East is supplying ten million fewer barrels of crude oil daily to the global economy. The diesel bottleneck is found in the refineries.
In the Catalan judicial imagination, there are two illustrious weddings that end in conviction. The first, that of Fèlix Millet’s daughter. The former director of the Palau de la Música ordered the stalls to be covered to celebrate a high-end banquet and charged the party’s bill to the accounts of the…
In the midst of controversy over the prior warnings about the Ceuta migration crisis of last July 31, the Minister of Defense, Margarita Robles, visited this morning the headquarters of the National Intelligence Center (CNI).
The Government has attributed the “call effect” that occurred on the morning of this Friday, amid strong tension, to the legal dispute resolved on Wednesday and Thursday in the National Court – following a complaint by the Unified Police Union (SUP) – due to the opening of the new camp in the facilities set up in the port of Ceuta, where more than 1,700 immigrants have been relocated to begin the process of their identification, a month and a half after the migratory avalanche that took place at the border of the autonomous city on July 30 and 31.
Alberto Núñez Feijóo has traveled to Melilla to celebrate the Autonomous City Day, a new way to show his support and commitment to the territory bordering Morocco at a delicate time following the massive entry of more than 70,000 immigrants into Ceuta. In this regard, he has warned that, if he comes to power, he will defend “the Spanishness of Ceuta and Melilla at all costs” and has said that, unlike Pedro Sánchez, he will not have a “subordinate” relationship with Rabat: “I have no secrets with Morocco.”
The Community of Madrid has tried to close the chapter on the controversial luxury penthouse acquired by Planifica Madrid with 224 pages of documentation. But the effect achieved has been very different from what Isabel Díaz Ayuso’s team sought. Because, although the file made public yesterday reconstructs in detail what happened from the moment the public company began negotiating the acquisition of the property until the regional Government canceled the lease that had been planned to use it “as an office” and decided to put it up for sale, it leaves the main questions unanswered. Who really commissioned the purchase?; when was the decision made?; and why was that penthouse chosen and not another property? “They intended to overwhelm with information, but it backfired due to the number of unanswered questions that still exist,” summarize from Más Madrid.
The transfer of a large part of the migrants who remain in the settlements on the beaches of Trampolín and Benítez began early this Friday. The security forces are accompanying a crowd to the Port facility, where only 1,800 people can fit despite the fact that it is estimated that there are more than 4,000 between the two beaches. For this reason, moments of tension have occurred as some migrants began to run and reinforcement from the National Police was necessary.
