Morocco Reopens Border to Repatriate Stranded Citizens from Spanish Enclave of Ceuta

If Morocco has finally agreed to reopen the famous humanitarian corridor, it is partly thanks to the guarantees put forward by the Ceuta authorities. This involves screening all the people on the repatriation lists.

Among the hundreds of Moroccans stranded in the enclave, only a handful of women and children were selected to return on Wednesday at 9 a.m. Other operations will follow, but the conditions required to be on the final list are still unclear.

The Ceuta operation was launched in parallel with that of Melilla, where a first group of 200 people was repatriated on the same day. Like Melilla, the repatriation of the people blocked in Ceuta will take place in several stages.
