On Sunday afternoon, clashes occurred at Ceuta port due to the arrival of members of the group `Negu Gorriak`, which advocates for the right to housing. Several resident groups gathered in protest, using social media to call for the demonstration.

The protests were described as a reaction against what residents perceive as a link between the group and radical leftism. According to sources, tension escalated quickly during the gathering, resulting in riots.

Police were present and made at least one arrest during the clashes. Law enforcement became necessary to control the situation, which was marked by acts of violence and vandalism.

During the riots, several individuals threw eggs and stones at a vehicle, which was forced to leave the vicinity of the port under police escort. This incident illustrates the escalation of hostility between the protesters and police escorts.

Witnesses reported that the atmosphere became tense rapidly, with a large number of people opposing the arrival of the pro-housing group. A local deputy's vehicle was attacked during the events.

The clashes and protests reflect a climate of social polarization in Ceuta, and the situation has generated discussions on social media, where opinions are divided about the group's presence and the claims it represents.
