Watch for: The Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs issues a joint statement with the Moroccan Ministry of Interior detailing new security protocols for Ceuta. · A US Congressional subcommittee holds hearings specifically titled 'Regional Migration Security and Middle Eastern Stability'.
-
Awaiting deadline 30% De-escalation through US Mediation

Awaiting deadline 20% Regional Security Hardening (Counter-Intuitive)

Watch for: A joint press release is issued by the Israeli Ministry of Defense and the Spanish Ministry of Defense regarding 'enhanced regional intelligence sharing'. · The NATO North Atlantic Council issues a statement referencing 'regional security challenges' in the Mediterranean basin.
