The Civil Guard estimates that more than 88,000 migrants have returned from Ceuta, more than the Government calculated had entered in July
The Civil Guard reports over 88,000 migrant returns from Ceuta since the mass entry in late July, exceeding government estimates. A total of 90 fatalities occurred on the Spanish side of the border, with 862 rescues documented. The government's initial figures fluctuated, with estimates ranging from 50,000 to 80,000 entries, leading to discrepancies in reported numbers. Local authorities also provided varying estimates, with the president of Ceuta suggesting numbers close to 100,000. The situation reflects ongoing challenges in managing migration and accurate reporting of figures.
