The Autonomous City of Melilla has officially requested an exceptional credit transfer from the central Spanish government to help manage and care for unaccompanied foreign minors. The formal petition, announced on August 6, follows a similar funding arrangement planned for Ceuta involving a 25 million euro allocation.
The request highlights ongoing financial and logistical pressures faced by Spanish North African enclaves in handling arrivals of unaccompanied minors. By seeking funds comparable to those designated for Ceuta, Melilla aims to secure additional resources from Madrid to address the sustained demands placed on its local child welfare and reception systems.
