Summary

A heavy storm in Ceuta, a Spanish enclave surrounded by Morocco, has exacerbated an existing migration crisis by flooding the area with excrement from migrants who have been using drains as toilets. The storm, which hit the city on Monday, also pushed plastic, cans, bottles, and wet wipes into the sea, creating an unpleasant smell for residents. The situation has led to social tensions and has become a political issue in Spain, with opposition parties hoping to use migration concerns to unseat the progressive government in upcoming elections.
