Spanish authorities have increased security around the enclaves in recent years through increased surveillance, barrier reinforcement, and improved bilateral relations with Morocco, but people continue to attempt to cross.

Spanish media estimated between 2,000 and 3,000 people entered Ceuta on Thursday, according to Reuters, but said that the Guardia Civil had not confirmed the figure.

They said they cooperate with Morocco on all areas, including migration, and that both countries have agreed to strengthen efforts to address matter, including "the handover, as soon as possible, of all people who have entered Ceuta illegally".
