On September 18, Spanish police launched an operation to move thousands of migrants from beaches to a newly constructed tent camp within Ceuta's port area. The operation started early morning as around 3,000 migrants were transferred, leading to chaos and confrontations between the migrants and authorities, who reportedly used tear gas and rubber bullets to maintain order. Of the initial influx of over 72,000 migrants from Morocco in late July, approximately 10,000 remain, with nearly 13,000 still sleeping rough on beaches despite the new housing capacity for 1,700 people. Local leaders and NGOs criticized authorities for their slow response to provide basic shelter for the migrants.
