When the tide overwhelms the wall: Death and desperation in Ceuta

Ceuta, a small Spanish enclave on Morocco's northern border, has just become the scene of an extraordinary migration crisis. Authorities estimate roughly 80,000 migrants rushed into Ceuta within a 48-hour period in late July. Nearly 75,000 of them subsequently returned to Morocco, but about 100 people died during the mass border crossing. What triggered the dramatic surge? Has Ceuta become the latest test of Europe's ability to manage migration challenges? And what are the wider implications of this unfolding crisis? Guests in this edition of Dialogue are Ruth Ferrero-Turrion, professor of political science at Complutense University of Madrid; Michele Geraci, former undersecretary of state with the Ministry of Economic Development of Italy; and Prof. Miriyam Aouragh from the University of Westminster. 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video Most watched videos: Impossible Challenge: 30 seconds to count banknotes BLINDFOLDED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmP_Ybj-jws Impossible Challenge: Gymnastics Boy Arat Hosseini from Iran! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sxX--U4c8w Impossible Challenge: How to calm babies in 5 seconds? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR3q9sXM7WA
