Spain’s King Felipe is visiting Ceuta for the first time in his reign, amid an ongoing migration crisis there.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets center on the royal visit to Ceuta and link it to the migration crisis there. The Independent frames the story around Ceuta as an enclave where the crisis has exposed “deep divisions,” while the Associated Press emphasizes the visit itself, noting it as the first by King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia and, in its extract, adding the late-July crossing figure.
