Spain's Royals Visit Ceuta Amid Migrant Crisis and Diplomatic Tensions

• Spain's King Felipe and Queen Letizia visited Ceuta on October 13, their first visit in 14 years.
• The visit comes amid a migrant crisis where over 70,000 people crossed into Ceuta from Morocco in July.
• Most migrants have returned to Morocco, but thousands remain, and dozens died during the crossing.
• The visit is seen as a show of solidarity with Ceuta residents and risks reigniting diplomatic tensions with Morocco.
• The royal couple will also visit Melilla, another Spanish exclave in North Africa, on October 14.
