Marcelo Molina, a journalist for Ronda de Corresponsales, reported that 260 Spanish municipalities have called for a march in support of Ceuta. [^1]

Molina reported that over 6,000 to 7,000 migrants currently lack accommodation and are wandering without housing in Ceuta. [^2]

Molina stated that sexual assault reports in Ceuta have increased to nearly one per day, up from one every six months previously, with many victims unable to report due to language barriers. [^3]

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez stated on September 1, 2026, that the migration crisis in Ceuta is linked to Israel, Russia, and a far-right international network. [^4]

The Socialist Party advised its militants not to participate in the march, considering it a political operation by the Popular Party. [^5]

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar responded to Sánchez's accusations by claiming Sánchez lied and accused Israel of spreading false information regarding the Ceuta events. [^6]

More than 72,000 people have entered Ceuta since July 30, 2026, with over 5,000 still roaming the streets and approximately 1,200 being minors. [^7]

Sánchez cited the European Commission's External Action Service, which reported that Russian and Israeli networks spread disinformation to attack Spanish and European governments regarding irregular immigration. [^8]
