The Spanish Council of Ministers approved a draft bill on Tuesday to reform immigration and asylum laws, aligning the national legal framework with the European migration pact. A single command led by Ángel Víctor Torres was created to manage the **Ceuta** crisis. The National Security Council has declared the situation in Ceuta a matter of national security following the entry of 80,000 migrants by sea in July. The new command includes the President of Ceuta, Juan Jesús Vivas, and National Intelligence Center officials. While a 180 million euro recovery plan for Ceuta is under consideration, no economic agreement was reached during Tuesday's meeting. The reform and security measures follow high-level discussions involving Prime Minister **Pedro Sánchez** and senior ministers. ## Related news [#Ceuta]() [#Spain]() [#Migration]() [#SupremeCourt]() [#PedroSánchez]() 27 October 2026 at 12:50 ## [Court rejects Ceuta's urgent migrant return bid]() > The Spanish Supreme Court has denied Ceuta's request for an immediate migrant expulsion plan following a mass entry of 70,000 people. #SpainTimeChange #WinterTime [#PedroSánchez]() #DaylightSaving #SpanishSleepSociety 23 October 2026 at 17:25 ## [Spain to switch to winter time on 25 October]() > Clocks will go back one hour this Sunday as Spain transitions to winter time amid ongoing government debates regarding the practice.
