seekers back across the border into0:10Morocco.0:11Charities say sixteen people were removed, all from other countries.0:14Spain says it used the necessary safeguards, while rights groups warned that the0:18people returned could face danger.0:19What protection did each person receive?0:21And what protects them now?0:23Ceuta and Melilla form the European Union's land borders with Morocco.0:27Both are Spanish and clavs on the North African coast.0:30Morocco agreed to receive this group, and Spain's Interior Ministry said they0:33remained there when it gave its statement.0:35Charities identified people from Senegal, Nigeria, Yemen, Cameroon, and Bangladesh.0:39The Interior Ministry hasn't confirmed their count or nationalities.0:43These were the first reported deportations of rejected asylum applicants of this0:46kind since July's mass crossing.0:48Thousands of other people had already returned to Morocco.0:51Morocco accepted people whom charities identify as citizens of five other countries.0:55For those people, the safety question reaches beyond permission to cross the border.0:59They need protection from mistreatment there, and from being sent onward to danger.1:04Spain's interior ministry defended the removals by saying the European Union1:07considers Morocco safe.1:08It said deportations happen with all the necessary safeguards, but gave no further1:13explanation.1:13The EU designation it invoked has a specific purpose: assessing asylum claims made1:18by a country's own citizens.1:20Morocco's safe, country of origin listing concerns Moroccan nationals.1:24The people identified by charities came from elsewhere.1:26Their removal brings separate protection requirements into play, including the risks1:30each person could face in Morocco or after being sent on to another country.1:34European asylum rules distinguish a safe country of origin, a safe third country,1:39and a first country of asylum.1:40Each concept addresses a different situation.1:43A rejected asylum claim in Spain still leaves authorities responsible for assessing1:47the risks involved in sending that person somewhere else.1:49Amnesty International researcher Virginia Alvarez accused Spain of failing to ensure1:53human rights guarantees at its borders.1:56She challenged the gap between the government's progressive language and its actions1:59in Ciuda and Melilla.2:00She also said, Morocco does not respect many human rights.2:04Amnesty points to restrictions on free expression and peaceful dissent in Morocco.2:09It also cites discriminatory laws affecting women and LGBTQ plus people, including2:14criminal penalties for consensual, same-sex relations and restrictions on sexual and2:18reproductive health care.2:19Those conditions explain the concern about individual risk.2:22About eighty a zero people entered Ceuta over forty, eight hours in late July.2:27At least one hundred people reportedly died during that crossing.2:30The arrivals roughly matched the city's resident population in a territory covering2:34just eighteen point five square kilometers.2:36The government dates the triggering events to July thirty and thirty one.2:40Most of those who entered left within days.2:43Spain later counted more than twelve seven hundred returns between August10 and2:47October twenty.2:47Its later figure described more than thirteen.2:50Zero voluntary returns since mid-August.2:53The periods have different starting points.2:55Several organizations, including Amnesty, challenged the word voluntary in a2:59complaint to Spain's ombudsman.3:00They said some people had been forced to leave, including non-Moroccans.3:04The government's October20 total didn't describe every return as voluntary.3:09These figures also cover a much wider population than the newly deported group.3:13Spain put accommodation capacity at more than seven four hundred places on October3:17twenty.3:18Descriptions of eight zero people differ.3:20One puts them in reception centers.3:21Another counts everyone remaining, including people sleeping outside.3:25Capacity and the number actually housed measure different things.3:28The government said most adult migrants still in Soda were in state, provided3:31facilities.3:32Others received help from charities and civil society.3:35A majority of those remaining had applied for asylum.3:37Spain said it had cleared the large coastal settlements at Trampol.3:41Then Tez and Guano, while work continued on scattered urban settlements, proposed3:46accommodation in the port area faced delays after the port authority raised3:49complications.3:50Suda's government had also sought a one-month deadline for resolving all expulsion,3:54return, and international protection cases.3:56Madrid rejected that deadline and set out its own obligation to assess people4:00individually.4:01Spain said each case requires an individual assessment.4:04Its response insisted on the procedures and safeguards required by Spanish and4:07European law.4:08That puts a concrete test on these removals.4:11Whether authorities assessed each person's risks and allowed an effective challenge.4:15Madrid also rejected accusations of inaction.4:17It cited a declaration of a situation of national security interest, stronger4:21coordination, more identification and triage resources, regulated accommodation, and4:26faster case processing.4:27But the ministry hasn't explained how its individual assessment standard was applied4:31to the people now sent to Morocco.4:33Prime Minister Pedras, Enchez faces a snap election on November29 , tens of4:38thousands of protesters have gathered across Spain over his handling of Ceuta.4:42Right.4:42Wing parties have attacked him and far.4:44Right Vox leader Santiago Abascal called him a traitor.4:47S.4:48Enches also faces pressure from the European Union over Ceuta.4:51For the people already removed, the immediate issue is their protection in Morocco.4:55Spain has confirmed Morocco's acceptance, but hasn't disclosed the individual4:59safeguards used or their conditions after arrival.5:01Their asylum refusals leave those questions unanswered.อ่านบทความลำดับเวลาของเรื่องHeyDex
