Many people come to Ceuta
The police are very surprised at first. There is violence at the border. People throw stones at police. Some shops are empty. At least 67 people die in the sea. In the city Melilla people also try to cross the border.
Spain checks the borders very strictly now. The people can not travel further. They get no visa for the main land. A visa is a permission for travel. Many migrants sleep outside or in parks.
Now almost all people are back in Morocco. The Spanish ministry says: 48.000 people are back. The situation in Ceuta is calm again. Politicians in Europe argue about the event. Some think Morocco does not guard the border on purpose.
