Ceuta: Spain reports that refugees are gradually returning as Spanish police and military forces have brought the situation under control. They have successfully escorted a group of migrants back to the El Tarajal border crossing in Ceuta, a Spanish exclave in North Africa. This development follows Spain's announcement that it has managed to control the situation, pushing back the majority of the more than 50,000 migrants who had arrived by land and sea.

According to Thai News Agency, the repatriation of migrants occurred after unrest at the border. A Spanish government representative in Ceuta disclosed that at least 57 bodies have been found on the Spanish side, with more deaths anticipated on the Moroccan side. Some victims drowned, while others were crushed to death while attempting to climb over the breakwater that supports the border fence.

The Spanish Interior Ministry has reported that approximately 50,000 migrants have crossed the border since Thursday morning, yet around 48,300 have already been pushed back. Concurrently, the head of the local government in Ceuta estimated that the number of migrants attempting to cross the border in recent days could reach 60,000, marking the largest border crossing attempt on record.
