Twenty-one Moroccan citizens were repatriated to Morocco following an incident where they attacked an Armed Forces patrol. The stone-throwing occurred at El Trampolín beach, where the patrol was carrying out surveillance activities.

The migrants, who had thrown stones at the patrol members, were located and subsequently deported. Authorities frequently conduct surveillance operations in the area to monitor irregular migration.

The repatriation was confirmed by official sources, who did not disclose details about how the incident occurred. No additional information is available regarding the conditions of the migrants after their repatriation.

This incident highlights the tensions that can arise between migrants and security forces in border regions like Ceuta, although no data on other similar incidents in the area were presented.
