The small town of Mora de Rubielos in Teruel, Spain, is facing political upheaval following the announcement of the arrival of 120 migrants from Mali.
The decision has led to the resignation of the town's deputy mayor, Rafael Vicente Alfanjarín, who criticized the lack of communication from authorities regarding the migrants' arrival.
The local government was informed by the hotel owner where the migrants will be housed, rather than through official channels.
This has sparked concerns about the town's capacity to accommodate such a large group, given its population of just 1,600. The situation has also drawn national attention, with the political party Vox expressing strong opposition and organizing protests, despite a ban on such gatherings.
The incident highlights ongoing tensions in Spain over immigration policies and the distribution of migrants across the country.
