What was initially presented as an unpredictable phenomenon, a massive wave of entries that collapsed the borders, has now been shrouded in a dense veil of controversy following the declassification of a series of police and intelligence reports. These documents, which are now coming to light, point to a very different reality: multiple alerts about a significant and imminent increase in migratory pressure, some of which warned of the \u00abextreme gravity\u00bb of the situation weeks before the outbreak. The magnitude of the crisis, with thousands of people trying to access Spanish territory in a few days, has highlighted not only border vulnerabilities but also the deep fissures in coordination and communication between the different levels of the State, as well as with neighboring countries. The discussion is no longer limited to the management of the crisis, but delves into the debate on political responsibility, transparency, and the authorities' capacity for foresight.<\/p><\/p><p><h3>The Warnings Before the Storm: A Chronology of Ignored Alerts<\/h3><\/p><p><p>The official narrative defending the unpredictability of the migration crisis in <strong>Ceuta<\/strong> has been severely questioned by the publication of a series of internal reports revealing a chain of warnings dating back weeks before the mass entry. The <strong>Border Civil Guard<\/strong>, in a document of\u2019<strong>extreme gravity<\/strong>, had already pointed to an increase of <strong>837%<\/strong> in entries to <strong>Ceuta<\/strong> during the month of July, long before the events that captured international attention. This figure, compelling in itself, has become one of the pillars of criticism of the government's management.<\/p><\/p><p><p>But the warnings do not stop there. A report from the <strong>CENIF<\/strong> pointed out that on <strong>July 29 and 30<\/strong> \u00abalerts were sent to the border posts of Ceuta and Melilla\u00bb to report the \u00abgravity\u00bb of the situation. Even more explicit was the warning from the <strong>National Intelligence Center (CNI)<\/strong>, which alerted the <strong>Government Delegation<\/strong> of a \u00abcall to storm by fence and sea\u00bb, mentioning \u00abgroups with <strong>180,000 followers<\/strong>\u00bb organizing. The <strong>CNI<\/strong> even communicated these \u00abcalls\u00bb to the intelligence services of <strong>Morocco<\/strong> on <strong>July 29<\/strong>, attempting prior coordination. Along the same lines, the <strong>32nd Transmission Regiment<\/strong> warned the <strong>Armed Forces Intelligence Center (CIFAS)<\/strong> on <strong>on July 30<\/strong> that a \u00abmass entry\u00bb was \u00abvery likely.\u00bb.<\/p><\/p><p><p>The passivity of the Moroccan authorities was also documented. A report from the\u2019<strong>General Staff<\/strong> of <strong>July 30 at 6:15 p.m.<\/strong>, pointed to a \u00abpassivity\u00bb on the part of neighboring authorities, noting that \u00abthey are allowing the arrival of candidates towards the border area.\u00bb This information, along with a classified report from the <strong>CIFAS<\/strong> which considered it \u00abvery likely\u00bb that the <strong>Morocco<\/strong> did not directly favor the migratory wave, but indeed \u00abhad acted until now in a negligent and passive manner,\u00bb paints a scenario where information about the imminent crisis not only existed, but was detailed and premonitory. This complex context is fundamental to understanding <a href=\"https:\/\/diarimataro.com\/en\/actualitat\/la-crisi-de-ceuta-un-mes-despres-el-debat-politic-i-la-trama-judicial-escalen\/\">The Ceuta Crisis: One Month Later, the Political Debate and the Judicial Plot Escalate<\/a>, as the repercussions of these reports have been immense.<\/p><\/p><p><h3>The Government's Response and the Escalation of Political Controversy<\/h3><\/p><p><p>Faced with the cascade of revelations, the <strong>Government<\/strong> has defended itself firmly, although with nuances that have further fueled the debate. The president <strong>Pedro S\u00e1nchez<\/strong> assured that no one, \u00abneither in <strong>Spain<\/strong> nor in the <strong>EU<\/strong>\u00ab, could anticipate the migration crisis. This statement has clashed head-on with the declassified reports. From <strong>Moncloa<\/strong> the warning from the <strong>CNI<\/strong>, was downgraded, arguing that \u00abat no point did it send a formal warning or alert\u00bb, while the <strong>CNI<\/strong> itself clarified that the declassification \u00abshows\u00bb that \u00abit did not anticipate the magnitude\u00bb of the event as it was \u00aban unusual phenomenon\u00bb. The Minister of Foreign Affairs, <strong>Jos\u00e9 Manuel Albares<\/strong>, said that he \u00abwas not aware of\u00bb warnings about the magnitude of the entries into <strong>Ceuta<\/strong>.<\/p><\/p><p><p>The Government Delegate in <strong>Ceuta<\/strong>, for his part, defended that the warnings for <strong>WhatsApp<\/strong> of <strong>CNI<\/strong> \u00abdo not constitute an alert or any report\u00bb and that \u00abit is very easy to take the messages out of context\u00bb, showing his \u00abanger\u00bb when asked if he was considering resigning. The Minister of <strong>Defense<\/strong>, <strong>Margarita Robles<\/strong>, accused the <strong>PP<\/strong> of lying by saying that the <strong>CIA<\/strong> had warned <strong>Spain<\/strong> of the massive entry, and stated that from her department \u00abwe have done our job and the professionalism of our people is beyond any doubt.\u00bb. <strong>\u00d3scar Puente<\/strong>, after the publication of the reports, maintained that \u00abthe available information in no case points to an organization by the <strong>Morocco<\/strong>\u00ab. <strong>Pilar Alegr\u00eda<\/strong> (identified as Torres in the original text) defended the executive's actions, stating that \u00abit is not true when it is claimed that the <strong>Government of Spain<\/strong> has done nothing\u00bb in the face of the crisis, and stressed that the priorities in <strong>Ceuta<\/strong> are the school year and the setting up of new spaces for the <strong>2,004 migrant minors<\/strong>.<\/p><\/p><p><p>The opposition, led by the <strong>People's Party<\/strong>, has lashed out harshly against the <strong>Government<\/strong>, accusing it of a \u00abState lie\u00bb, in the words of\u2019<strong>Ester Mu\u00f1oz<\/strong>, and of having done nothing. The <strong>Senate<\/strong> even censured the <strong>Government<\/strong> for the migration crisis and singled out five ministers. The parliamentary partners, more cautious, have called for calm. Meanwhile, the crisis has not only been limited to the political debate: two attacks by migrants on a Regulars soldier and a legionnaire have been reported in <strong>Ceuta<\/strong>, and the judge <strong>Tard\u00f3n<\/strong> has admitted the appearance of the <strong>Government<\/strong> as an injured party in the investigation into the massive entry. In addition, the <strong>Police<\/strong> warned \u00abpreventively\u00bb the <strong>Canary Islands<\/strong> of \u00abpossible irregular entries\u00bb on <strong>July 31<\/strong>, indicating that concern over migration pressure extended beyond <strong>Ceuta<\/strong>. This scenario underlines the importance of coordination and strategy in border management, an issue that the <strong>European Union<\/strong> is also reinforcing in the face of future contingencies, as analyzed in <a href=\"https:\/\/diarimataro.com\/en\/actualitat\/la-ue-reforca-la-seva-estrategia-davant-de-futures-crisis-migratories\/\">The EU strengthens its strategy in the face of future migration crises<\/a>.<\/p><\/p><p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La crisi migrat\u00f2ria a Ceuta va desfermar una confrontaci\u00f3 pol\u00edtica.
