Asimismo, es correcto que el grupo de los Socialistas y Demócratas (S\&D) rechazó ese encuadre, se opuso a la resolución final —calificando los hechos como un «ataque híbrido»— y votó en contra del texto liderado por el PPE, tratando de suavizar el lenguaje y haciendo de la crítica al Gobierno de Madrid una «línea roja» en las negociaciones[^2]. El tuit no omite información esencial ni distorsiona el hecho fundamental: la Eurocámara adoptó la denominación de «invasión» a pesar de la oposición socialista. **Overall validity**: 95% [^1]: [The European Parliament defined the events in Ceuta as an 'invasion.'](#CpzFML4CNhDgbAaFpljL) [^2]: [Socialists in the European Parliament opposed the characterization of the events in Ceuta as an 'invasion.'](#ju17bLHP9Wwt1annK8GY) ## Claims found (2) ### 1. The European Parliament defined the events in Ceuta as an 'invasion.' — 100% Model: Kimi K2.6 · Checked on: 17/09/2026 · Detail: /claim/CpzFML4CNhDgbAaFpljL **Reasoning** - On 16 September 2026 the European Parliament adopted a resolution that explicitly addresses the mass crossings into Ceuta on 30–31 July 2026. - The approved text states that Parliament “condena enérgicamente el ataque … así como la **posterior invasión** de la ciudad” (strongly condemns the attack … as well as the subsequent **invasion** of the city)[^1]. - Spanish press reports also describe the resolution as denouncing that the city was “**invadida**” (invaded)[^2]. - The text was adopted in plenary by 435 votes in favour, 209 against and 13 abstentions[^1]. - Therefore, the European Parliament has officially characterised the July 2026 events in Ceuta as an “invasion”. **Overall validity**: 100% [^1]: [El Parlamento Europeo condena el "ataque" y la "invasión" de Ceuta y exige una "investigación independiente"](https://www.elespanol.com/mundo/europa/20260916/eurocamara-condena-ataque-invasion-ceuta-exige-investigacion-independiente/1003744385761_0.html) [^2]: [La Eurocámara define como invasión la entrada en Ceuta](https://www.laregion.es/espana/eurocamara-define-invasion-entrada-ceuta_1_20260917-4417792.html) ### 2. Socialists in the European Parliament opposed the characterization of the events in Ceuta as an 'invasion.' — 90% Model: Kimi K2.6 · Checked on: 17/09/2026 · Detail: /claim/ju17bLHP9Wwt1annK8GY **Reasoning** - The July 2026 mass influx into Ceuta produced a sharp clash in the European Parliament. EPP lawmakers accused the Spanish government of allowing an “invasion” of European territory[^1], while far-right groups (ECR, PfE) also explicitly described the events as an “invasion”[^2]. - The Socialists and Democrats (S\&D) group rejected this framing. They opposed the final resolution that condemned the “mass invasion” and labelled the events as a “hybrid attack” instead[^3][^4]. - S\&D leader Iratxe García Pérez attacked the EPP for “exploiting Ceuta… with the sole aim of attacking the Spanish government”[^1][^5] and warned that inflammatory language “is beginning to undermine the EU’s fundamental values”[^6]. The group also made criticism of Madrid a “red line” in negotiations, leading them to vote against the EPP-led text[^4][^7]. - Agence Europe reported that the Socialists were seeking to “soften the language” of the accusations and expressed dismay at member states that blamed Madrid[^2][^1]. **Overall validity**: 90% [^1]: [‘Do you know where Ceuta is?’: EU Parliament erupts over migration | Euronews](https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2026/09/15/do-you-know-where-ceuta-is-eu-parliament-erupts-over-migration) [^2]: [Crisis in Ceuta – seven resolutions to be put to vote in ...](https://agenceurope.eu/en/bulletin/article/13939/11/crisis-in-ceuta-seven-resolutions-to-be-put-to-vote-in-european-parliament-von-der-leyen-majority-at-its-weakest) [^3]: [Europe must send a united message of solidarity to Ceuta and Spain | Socialists and Democrats](https://www.socialistsanddemocrats.eu/newsroom/europe-must-send-united-message-solidarity-ceuta-and-spain) [^4]: [Sánchez Humiliated as EP Calls Ceuta ‘Invasion’, Blames Spain’s Migration Policy  - Hungarian Conservative](https://www.hungarianconservative.com/articles/current/ep-ceuta-invasion-hybrid-warfare-sanchez-migration) [^5]: [Iratxe García accuses PP and Vox for the crisis of Ceuta | Demócrata](https://www.democrata.es/en/politics/the-leader-of-the-socialists-in-the-eurochamber-accuses-pp-and-vox-of-mishandling-the-ceuta-crisis-and-demands-support-from-the-eu/amp) [^6]: [Iratxe García calls for Europe to continue supporting Ceuta during ...](https://forumeuropa.eu/news/iratxe-garcia-calls-europe-continue-supporting-ceuta-during-migration-crisis-and-criticises) [^7]: [Iratxe García accuses PP and Vox for the crisis of Ceuta | Demócrata](https://www.democrata.es/en/politics/the-leader-of-the-socialists-in-the-eurochamber-accuses-pp-and-vox-of-mishandling-the-ceuta-crisis-and-demands-support-from-the-eu)
