Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez publicly accused both Israel and Russia of orchestrating a disinformation campaign surrounding the migrant crisis that unfolded in Ceuta in July. According to Sanchez, social networks connected to these nations actively spread false information about the event. He further alleged that far-right networks amplified this disinformation. The Prime Minister linked the smear campaign to Spain’s stance opposing the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, suggesting a retaliatory motive. Sanchez did not provide specific evidence to support these claims, but asserted the coordinated effort aimed to destabilize Spain. The accusation marks a significant diplomatic point as Spain seeks to address the fallout from the migration event and navigate international relations.
