Thousands of migrants in Ceuta wait in limbo while Spain figures out what to do with them
- CEUTA, Spain -- For weeks, migrants in the Spanish territory of Ceuta had gathered on a beach away from the city center, sleeping on cardboard sheets, under reed huts and guarding their few possessions in tattered plastic bags.
- They were gone by Thursday morning after Spanish police escorted them to makeshift shelters.
- But an hour later, other migrants were combing through the trash they had left behind for anything useful: an abandoned mattress, plastic chairs, sheets, a scrap of tarp.
