Thursday saw a significant influx of people into Spain, but the majority have already returned to Morocco, The New York Times reports. A small minority remains, currently camped on the seafront in Ceuta. These individuals are described as tired and hungry, yet they are determined not to leave. They have taken shelter on the beach, refusing to abandon their position despite the difficult circumstances.

The remaining group has reportedly vowed to stay, showing resilience in the face of exhaustion and hunger. The larger wave of migrants, who surged across the border on Thursday, chose to go back. In contrast, this small group continues to hold out on the open shore. Their presence on the beach underscores the unresolved nature of their situation. The New York Times notes that they are exhausted and hungry, but their commitment to remain appears firm.
