Spain braces EU-aligned asylum reforms as Ceuta crisis lingers

TL;DR Summary
Spain will draft a bill to align its immigration and asylum laws with the EU’s Pact on Migration and Asylum, enabling quicker rejections and expulsions. The move follows the Ceuta surge in July (about 80,000 crossings), with around 5,000 migrants remaining, including roughly 2,000 minors. The reform covers the Canary Islands and introduces an EU-style screening process, while Madrid seeks a single command to manage the crisis amid debates over safeguarding minors and EU return rules.
