Italy extends border controls on visitors from Spain as migration feud continues
Europe2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported12m ago
Italy has extended its border controls on visitors from Spain for an additional 15 days, maintaining measures that were initially implemented amid a broader migration dispute between the two nations. The ongoing border checks are part of a series of retaliatory measures following a significant surge in migrant arrivals.
Specifically, the heightened border controls were enacted after more than 72,000 migrants entered Spain’s North African territory of Ceuta from Morocco in late July. The continued enforcement underscores the persistent diplomatic and regional tensions surrounding migration management across European borders.
