On August 4, the Ceuta migrant crisis dominated Spanish media for the fifth consecutive day, with editorial focus shifting to Interior Minister Marlaska's post-EU meeting press conference. He stated that 70,000 of the 72,000 entrants had returned to Morocco and insisted no intelligence service, including the CNI, had provided prior warning. This denial became the day's central narrative, repeated across outlets. Earlier, the government announced a €25 million fund for unaccompanied minors, while the PP refused to accept them in its regions. By evening, El Confidencial reported Moroccan social media calls for a new border assault on August 15, adding a forward-looking threat. Secondary stories included scrutiny of Ayuso's travel expenses and a Madrid property purchase.
