National Police and Civil Guard officers escorted migrants to temporary reception sites at Loma Margarita and El Embolsamiento. More than 1,200 people had been transferred by late morning, while local reports put the total at up to 1,700. The beach was later cleared, although some migrants returned. Spain has prepared space for around 1,800 people in military facilities and tents, with further sites due to open in the coming days.
