Crisis and Desperation in Ceuta

We have been invaded,

we are locked inside our homes,

the supermarkets are looted, there are no supplies,

there is absolutely nothing.

I don't know when we are going to start going hungry

because we are emptying our fridges.

There are people everywhere.

It's a lie that there are good people,

that there are bad people, that there's all kinds.

They are trying to break into houses.

My sister left the house,

she had to climb out the window

because they were breaking into the neighbor's house

across the street, screaming at the top of their lungs.

This is absolute madness.

There is no one to protect us.

They have abandoned us.

We are Spaniards, we have our businesses, our lives.

We are hard-working people, like

any other Spaniard. We need

help. We have been invaded.

It's a city of less than 20 kilometers.

There are 70,000 people telling us otherwise.

Yes, there are also children who need help.

Children, very few of whom have come because most are

men. Men whose origin is unknown.

I only know there is looting, that there have been problems,

there have been very tough cases. Very serious things are happening, and don't let anyone, no one,

come and tell me that everyone is good and that there is humanity.

Yes, my heart has also broken

over a child I saw. It broke, my soul was torn apart.

But there are many bad people, 70,000 people.

Are we crazy?

Are we crazy? And let someone come and tell me something about humanity?

And, or no, let someone come, let them tell me,

let them tell me, who am here, who cannot leave my house,

with my father and my disabled [relative], for days now.

This is really tough, really tough, and we've been abandoned.

We are Spanish, what do you mean hand over Ceuta and Melilla?

Ceuta is Spanish.

And we live here, and we work, and we pay taxes, and we are good neighbors,

and we are good people.

Our patron saint festivals, suspended, everything.

My father, we don't know how to get him out of Ceuta.

They have no shame, and let someone come, just one comment,

just one comment saying that we don't have humanity or that we lack something.

For the children, yes, for the children, yes, but there are many people who aren't.

Out of 70,000 people, how many good people can slip in and how many bad people can slip in?

We are desperate.

A time will come when we won't have anything to eat.

They have looted supermarkets, they are closed.

What do we do? Please, help.

Shame on the government, shame on the politicians,

shame on everything.

There's no humanity, and what about us?

What about us? Spaniards.

And no religions or anything, Spaniards.

There's all sorts here in Ceuta.
