King Felipe VI made a visit on Tuesday to Ceuta, a Spanish enclave located in North Africa, marking a gesture of support to the local population.
This visit comes three months after the arrival of more than 72,000 migrants from Morocco, an event that had put the region under pressure.
However, this trip could reignite tensions with Morocco, which claims sovereignty over Ceuta as well as Melilla, another Spanish autonomous city located about 500 kilometers away.
