#PortOfCeuta [#ÓscarPuente]() [#Ceuta]() # Spain takes control of Ceuta port for migrants 6 September 2026 at 11:34 > Transport Minister Óscar Puente has authorised the installation of temporary reception tents for 1,000 migrants at the port of Ceuta. Transport Minister **Óscar Puente** signed an order on Saturday, 5 September 2026, to take control of the **port of Ceuta**. The directive authorises the installation of temporary reception tents for over 1,000 migrants across 16,000 square metres of the Poniente pier. The Ministry of Transport acted following a request from the Secretary of State for Migrations. The order invokes Article 73.3 of the Law of State Ports and the Merchant Marine, overriding a Friday vote by the Port Authority Board against the installation. The site includes rest areas, an infirmary, and social intervention offices within the public port domain. This central intervention secures essential infrastructure for migrant reception despite opposition from the city-controlled **Ceuta** Port Authority. ## 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.
