Ceuta's port camp filled and overflowed. After the Audiencia Nacional declined to extend the suspension, police began moving migrants from the beaches to the port at dawn, an operation marked by runs, police charges and shots fired, with Libertad Digital and others describing chaos and criticizing coverage they called too calm. By mid-morning the camp was declared full at around 1,700 arrivals; police closed the places and more than 2,000 migrants returned to the beaches, with the government estimating over 3,000 still on the streets and blaming court litigation for a pull effect. A failed second clearance of Trampolín and Benítez beaches left them overcrowded again, and counts kept diverging, from Sánchez's figures to claims of up to 13,000.
