Where they diverge
-
The cause of the mass crossing.
- The Jerusalem Post: The crossing resulted from 'the interaction of several overlapping factors,' specifically 'the excessive exploitation of digital platforms, the dissemination of misleading information, the role of human trafficking networks, and incorrect interpretations of legal and administrative information.'
- The Straits Times: Spanish authorities should have anticipated the consequences of a court ruling that weakened a key deterrent against illegal migration.
- The Local (Spain): An easing of controls by Morocco in the border area of Ceuta contributed to the recent mass influx of migrants, with suggestions of American and Israeli involvement.
-
The number of migrants involved.
- The Jerusalem Post: More than 50,000 people crossed into Ceuta by land and sea on Thursday last week in an unprecedented surge.
- Al Jazeera: An estimated 3,000 to 5,000 migrants, of the roughly 60,000 who arrived in Ceuta on Thursday, have avoided expulsion.
- The Straits Times: Spain estimates that about 69,500 migrants have returned from Ceuta to Morocco since last week's crossing, while Moroccan authorities say about 40,000 people entered the enclave.
