Moroccans wanting to cross irregularly to Ceuta have resumed their attempts on Tuesday. Images shared on social media show Moroccans gathered at the Tarajal beach to cross to the city in front of the Spanish authorities deployed to stop this exodus.
Annoyed by the deployment of the Spanish forces, Moroccans started throwing stones at the fence.
The Spanish city, which has spent one of its most eventful nights, also woke up this morning to Moroccan migrants in the streets.

«There is no place in the city where these people are not seen wandering», wrote on Tuesday, El Faro de Ceuta. A migratory pressure for which the city does not seem prepared. Indeed, the José Benoliel football field intended to accommodate adult migrants, has not yet been set up.
