Spain Deploys Military to Ceuta Amid Morocco Border Crisis The historic city of Ceuta, a Spanish enclave on the North African coast, has been at the center of a growing crisis after thousands of people breached Morocco's border and surged into the territory.
This development marks the latest escalation in the ongoing tensions between Madrid and Rabat, with both countries locked in a complex web of history, politics, and economics.
Background to the Crisis in Ceuta Ceuta has been a Spanish possession since 1580, when it was captured from Portugal during the Iberian Union.
