EU Parliament Accuses Morocco of Hybrid Warfare in Ceuta Migration Crisis
The European Parliament has formally accused Morocco of using migration as a hybrid warfare tool against Spain in Ceuta, marking a significant escalation in EU-Morocco relations. This accusation follows a late July surge of over 72,000 migrants into Ceuta, which has generated domestic political crises in Spain and fueled far-right sentiment across the EU. The extent of Morocco's direct role in orchestrating the surge remains contested, but the political fallout is confirmed.
