Morocco has announced it is prepared to work with Spain and European partners to identify and repatriate unaccompanied minors currently stranded in Ceuta (a small Spanish enclave on the northern coast of Africa), following a mass migration crisis last week in which tens of thousands of people crossed into the territory. While most adult migrants have since returned to Morocco, around 1,100 minors — possibly more — remain in Ceuta, where aid organisations report they are sleeping rough with little access to food, water, or shelter, and face serious risks of abuse, trafficking, and exploitation. Morocco's state news agency MAP cited a diplomatic source saying Rabat would cooperate with the EU to locate the children and facilitate their return, though it cautioned that legal and administrative barriers on the European side would need to be addressed; the crisis has so far claimed at least 80 lives, with some estimates putting the death toll above 100.
