Migration used as hybrid warfare tool in Ceuta and Melilla

The use of migration as a tool for political destabilization is highlighted through recent events in Ceuta and Melilla, where thousands of Moroccan youths arrived at the Spanish enclaves. This phenomenon is described as a form of hybrid warfare, where non-conventional methods are used to exert political pressure.

Rather than utilizing traditional military force such as tanks or aircraft, these modern tactics involve indirect methods. This includes the potential orchestration or tolerance of unarmed immigrant assaults to send signals of strength to the Spanish government or to influence its diplomatic relations with other nations, such as Algeria.
