On 9 November RTVE wrote that the National Police returned to the port camp before 07:00 for a second operation, continuing Sunday’s, with total clearance as the aim. On Sunday the 50 AECID tents on the Poniente quay were removed. On 10 November La Moncloa attributes to Elma Saiz confirmation that the two temporary resources at the port have been dismantled. El Faro writes that Levante and Poniente finished on 9 November, with about 2,000 occupants and 400 officers, and that somewhat more than 300 minors went to tents at Loma Colmenar. The delegate, according to El Faro, confirmed 550 already in Morocco. The standfirst says “around 500”. The Objective, citing police sources, writes “more than 200”. They are not merged.

• RTVE, 9 November, 10:42: “According to the Jefatura Superior de Policía, officers returned to this settlement before 07:00 to carry out a second operation, continuing the one carried out on Sunday.” The aim the outlet writes is to move people to other Government settlements or to the Tarajal CATE if they have not been identified. At that hour, total clearance is the aim of the operation. RTVE does not report it as finished.
• RTVE: the clearance began on Sunday with the removal of the 50 AECID tents on the Poniente quay. The outlet writes that the temporary spaces have about 7,000 places and about 5,800 people registered. That is the pair Europa Press attributed to Torres on 4 November. This card does not turn it into a new count.
• La Moncloa, 10 November: Saiz “has confirmed that the two temporary resources set up on the port plots have already been dismantled.” Europa Press attributes the same confirmation to her and writes that the operation began on Sunday. That is the spokesperson’s confirmation. It is not a note from the Jefatura.
• El Faro, 10 November: the clearances of Levante and Poniente “began last Sunday and finished yesterday.” “400 national police officers worked on this.” “In all there were 2,000 migrants.” “In all there were somewhat more than 300 children” moved to tents at Loma Colmenar. “Somewhat more than 300” is El Faro’s figure. It is not the UPR riot at Loma Colmenar on 30 October.
• El Faro: “Of all those cleared from the tents, 550 are already in Morocco, as the government delegate himself, David de la Encina, has confirmed.” The standfirst of the same piece says that “around 500 have left for Morocco.” The Objective, 10 November, citing police sources: “More than 200 migrants” cleared between Sunday and Monday have returned, some voluntarily and others after an asylum refusal. 550, around 500 and more than 200 are not merged. El Faro attributes the 550 to a video of the delegate. This review has not located that video. The source of the 550 is El Faro.
• Europa Press, 10 November, attributes to Ángel Víctor Torres “about 2,000 people” on the two plots, “304 minors” on the dismantled plots and “about 5,000 people” of adult age in the State’s resources, and that “they remain on the streets.” El Faro writes “between 5,000 and 6,000” people who would remain in Ceuta. “About 2,000” and “2,000” are not chosen as a single figure. “304” and “somewhat more than 300” are not merged. “About 5,000” in State resources, “between 5,000 and 6,000” in the city and the “about 15,000” the Government of Ceuta estimated on 30 October are not merged.
• El Faro attributes to the “mando único” the sentence “We have been able to get all the migrants out; they have been transferred to the CATE.” Europa Press attributes that sentence to Torres. It is the same quotation in two pieces, with two attributions. This card does not choose one.
