Spain has begun temporary border checks on travelers arriving from Italy by air and sea, in response to Italy’s own controls on arrivals from Spain. The checks include document verification for Italian passengers and other travelers arriving from Italy at several airports in Spain. This action follows a large influx of migrants into Ceuta, Spain’s North African enclave, prompting Italy to impose restrictions on non-EU nationals arriving from Spain. The border controls are set to remain in place until early September.
