European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has demanded "swift returns" of migrants from the Spanish city of Ceuta and has tasked two European commissioners with addressing the matter. "Returns must be swift, as our rules allow," she wrote on social network X. Von der Leyen demanded that "dangerous crossings must stop immediately" and that "smuggling networks must be dismantled." The head of the European Commission said she had tasked European Commissioner for Home Affairs and Migration Magnus Brunner and European Commissioner for the Mediterranean Dubravka Suica with addressing the situation, including by pressing Moroccan authorities to halt the flow of migrants. Amid the migration crisis, Spanish authorities decided to deploy the military to help ensure security in the city.
