| Ceuta / Schengen Crisis

Authorities confirmed that 11 of the 12 Moroccan nationals arrested after the Aug 27 stoning of an army vehicle in Benzú — which injured one soldier and four migrants — were subsequently expelled from Ceuta. It was the first confirmed expulsion tied directly to a violent incident since the July 30-31 crossing, as opposition parties pressed the government to accelerate returns more broadly.
