Vivas estimates there are 15,000 migrants in Ceuta and criticizes the fact that there have been "no" administrative returns.

Juan Vivas, the president of Ceuta belonging to the People's Party (PP), stated on Monday that approximately 15,000 migrants remain in the city following mass entries that occurred on July 30 and 31. Vivas criticized the fact that, three months after these events, no administrative returns of the migrants have taken place.

Separately, in an unrelated development in the Basque Country, two individuals arrested by the Ertzaintza in Irun, Gipuzkoa, remain in police custody. The detainees are being investigated for a terrorism-related offense and are linked to dissident sectors of the left-wing abertzale movement, pending their appearance before judicial authorities.
