O último balanzo oficial eleva a case 100 o número de mjgrantes mortos, segundo a información facilitada pola delegación do Goberno en Ceuta, que asegura que traballan para acelerar os expedientes das persoas que entraron de xeito irregular na cidade autónoma o pasado venres co obxectivo de excutar os retornos “o antes posíbel”. 

Ceuta tenta recuperar a normalidade  após da entrada irregular o pasado xoves de máis de 50.000 persoas desde Marrocos e malia que a maioría deles retornaron xa ao seu paìs, as Forzas de Seguridade e o Exército realizan controis nas rúas para acadar a execución do retorno canto antes.

WHAT THE 15 JULY 2026 CIRCULAR ACTUALLY CHANGES

1. The interpretation stays exactly the same - "lower part" still means the lowest deck level, platform or passageway, not necessarily the deepest point of the hull
2. No amendment was made - the committee reviewed the wording and left it untouched
3. No further discussion is planned - the specific interpretation question is now formally closed

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said on Thursday that an explosion set a tanker ablaze in the Strait of Hormuz after it attempted to navigate the southern route off the coast of Oman.
