Intelligence warns of jihadist plots against Spanish troops amid Ceuta migrant surge

During a televised debate, participants described Ceuta's situation as a critical security crisis following mass border breaches and the rapid eviction of migrants from the Trampolín beach, which they said coincided with upcoming elections. They claimed the partial expulsions were part of a Moroccan strategy to secure votes for the Spanish socialist candidate. Intelligence assessments revealed infiltration by dozens of Moroccan agents and between twelve and fourteen jihadist fighters, including veterans of overseas conflicts, who aim to attack Spanish army units and bases.

The panel highlighted a recent ambush that wounded four soldiers in Benzú as proof of operational cells. They condemned the Spanish prime minister's call for patience, labeling it an abandonment of the enclave, and urged a decisive shift in foreign policy to protect national sovereignty. The king's remarks in Finland about the EU external border were noted, but the speakers insisted Spain must end concessions to Rabat.
