Declassified Spanish intelligence documents reveal that Spain's spy agency and Moroccan authorities were warned in advance—reportedly the day before—of social media calls for a mass migrant crossing into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta, ahead of a surge in which tens of thousands of people entered the territory. The revelations have raised questions about whether authorities could have prevented or better managed the crisis. Morocco has since denied any involvement in facilitating the surge, which saw more than 70,000 migrants cross into Ceuta, triggering a humanitarian crisis and straining diplomatic relations between Madrid and Rabat. The scale of the crossing and the advance warnings have intensified political scrutiny of both governments' handling of border security.
