in5points
Up to 60,000 migrants reportedly crossed or attempted to enter Spain's Ceuta enclave within 48 hours.
Viral social media rumours on TikTok and Instagram spread claims of an 'open border', fuelling the mass movement.
A Spanish Supreme Court ruling was cited as contributing to the perception of an open border.
Most migrants were young Moroccan men, along with families, women, and children.
Migrants swam around coastal breakwaters or stormed border barriers to enter the enclave.
