Spain installs a sea barrier along its border area in Ceuta, following a deadly surge in attempts to cross from Morocco. Multiple reports say the incident involved a stampede around a breakwater/barrier area, with migrants dying in and around the crossing. The Spanish government says at least 67 people died, including individuals who drowned and others who were killed during the rush. The measures announced by Spain include the installation of a sea barrier intended to limit further access attempts at the same crossing point. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez also publicly criticizes the reaction of some other European Union leaders to the events in Ceuta, according to one outlet’s account. The reports present the border incident as a major humanitarian and security event for Spain and the EU’s external borders, and they frame the new physical barriers as a response to the circumstances surrounding the fatalities.
