Spain's North African enclave of Ceuta is facing a humanitarian and security emergency after about 1,500 migrants swam across from Morocco in the past week.
Ceuta's leader, Juan Jesus Vivas, said reception centers are overwhelmed, with hundreds sleeping outdoors and facilities for unaccompanied minors operating at 2,400% capacity.
Arrivals are averaging 300 people a day, raising fears of a repeat of the 2021 crisis, when around 10,000 migrants entered Ceuta within days.
