The Government declassifies 40 documents related to the Ceuta crisis and is open to publishing more if there are any: "Nothing to hide"

The Spanish government has announced the declassification of 40 documents concerning the migration crisis in Ceuta that occurred between July 1 and August 1. Government spokesperson Elma Saiz stated that the administration has nothing to hide and remains open to releasing further documentation if it becomes available. The move aims to provide clarity regarding the circumstances surrounding the mass arrival of migrants in the region.

Political reactions have emerged, with the Sumar party expressing support for the government's decision to declassify the reports. The party stated that the transparency is necessary to obtain answers about the events and indicated that they intend to pursue accountability once the information is reviewed. Separately, the government addressed concerns regarding a recent Ministry of the Interior report on journalists, characterizing it as an internal working document rather than an attempt to censor or target the press.
