Men, many from sub-Saharan Africa, wait on a beach for humanitarian assistance in Ceuta, Spain, after crossing from Morocco into the exclave on the Mediterranean coast of North Africa, on Saturday, Aug. 1, 2026. Many of the roughly 50,000 people who crossed the border on Thursday and Friday wondered if the unprecedented surge had been planned by Morocco, which has been accused of using immigrant flows in the past for political pressure. By Friday evening, most of them had left, hungry and disappointed. (Finbarr O?Reilly/The New York Times/Fotoarena)
