As Italy refused to cancel border control measures initiated against Spain due to the Ceuta “smuggling wave” crisis, the Spanish government announced that it will carry out entry checks on travelers from Italy. Spanish Radio and Television quoted a decree issued by the Spanish government as reporting that from midnight on the 8th, Spain will carry out random spot checks on travelers entering Italy at ports and airports. The measure is tentatively scheduled to be implemented until September 7. The reason given by the Spanish side is that Italy continues to face tremendous pressure from the influx of illegal immigrants. When Spanish law enforcement officers inspect travelers from Italy, they will check the passenger's identity and nationality information; for citizens of third countries, they will check their visas or residence permits.
