The Minister of Health of Spain, Mónica García, stated that the government intends to relocate the migrants currently housed in Ceuta within a timeframe of two to three weeks. According to reports, there are currently about 3,800 people accommodated in the region, awaiting a solution to their situation.

García emphasized the urgent need to develop a 'relocation timeline' that ensures migrants have access to dignified conditions, including shelter, water, and protection of their basic rights.

Additionally, the minister indicated that next week, another thousand spots will be made available to accommodate those who have not yet been relocated. This measure is part of the government's strategy to address the needs of migrants more effectively.

According to García, the initial focus is to ensure a safe shelter and adequate conditions for everyone involved in the relocation process.

The situation continues to be monitored by the authorities in an effort to ensure that the relocation operations function in an organized manner and within an appropriate timeline.
