The European Commission has granted the Spanish government 114.7 million euros from its emergency aid fund to deal with the migration crisis that Ceuta has been facing since the end of July, in what the institution describes as an act of "solidarity" with Spain.
"This financial assistance comes on top of the Commission's immediate response from day one, when it offered Spain both financial and operational support," the Commission said in a statement. "The decision once again demonstrates the Commission's full solidarity with Spain in dealing with this difficult situation."
