Someone was seen floating in the sea, someone was holding a floating tube, there were some people who were on a boat. Everyone wanted to cross the border. The security forces were trying to stop them. But failed. There is a fierce confrontation here. The sound of gunshots is echoing at the gates of Europe, the city of Ceuta in Spain these days. The army of migrants from North Africa wants to cross the sea to enter a small city in the hope of a better future, but they are being met with police firing and the strictness of the security forces. In this confrontation, 57 people have died and there are questions about human rights all over the world. The most interesting thing is that the city about which there is so much fuss is surrounded by the land of Morocco in Africa, but it is ruled by Spain. After all, which centuries-old historical story is making Ceuta a part of Europe? Why does Morocco consider it its own? And why did this small town become the biggest gateway to reach Europe from the northern enclave of Morocco last week?
