Overnight coverage still carried Morocco's rejection of scapegoat status over the 30J crossing, praising ties with Sánchez while accusing the PP of electoral exploitation. By morning the focus moved inside the government, with reports of PSOE disarray, scrutiny of Sánchez's chief of staff over the declassified CNI reports, and Ceuta president Vivas saying Moncloa told him to stop calling before the assault.
The declassified WhatsApp warning narrowed to a personnel fallout: the government delegate's chief of staff stepped down insisting he had forwarded the CNI alert, accusing his superior of lying, with outlets dissecting the 'sus rilas' message.
Parallel coverage tracked a fire that destroyed some 40 migrant shacks and shops at Tarajal, forcing hundreds to evacuate, and Catalonia's Diada, with conciliatory institutional acts and divided independence marches in Barcelona, Girona and Amposta drawing around 57,000.
