The day was dominated by the Audiencia Nacional's decision to investigate the mass entry into Ceuta as an attack on territorial integrity. Judge Tardón cited clear involvement of Moroccan Armed Forces, framing it as a 'hybrid war'. This judicial move followed weeks of political blame, with Feijóo and Vivas accusing Morocco and suggesting Sánchez planned concessions. Meanwhile, the Plus Ultra scandal resurfaced: its ex-president admitted paying a 1% commission to 'Grupo Zapatero' for the rescue. The AfD's near-miss in Saxony-Anhalt also drew attention, with speculation about CDU support. Throughout, the Ceuta crisis remained the central editorial focus, evolving from political to judicial.
