In tonight’s edition: a planned mass-suicide attack in the capital of Nigeria’s northeast Borno State leaves only the assailants dead. Also, hundreds of migrants have broken through the border between Morocco and Ceuta, a Spanish territory in North Africa. And in Ghana, the captain of the national football team is under fire in the United Arab Emirates for sporting an ‘un-islamic’ hairstyle. We travel to Ghana to talk to dedicated followers of that cut.

In This Story: Ceuta

Ceuta is a Spanish autonomous city on the north coast of Africa. Bordered by Morocco, it lies along the boundary between the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean.

It was part of the province of Cádiz until 14 March 1995. On that date, Statutes of Autonomy were passed for both Ceuta and Melilla.

Ceuta, like Melilla and the Canary Islands, was classified as a free port before Spain joined the European Union. Its population consists of Christians, Muslims, and small minorities of Sephardic Jews and ethnic Sindhis from modern-day Pakistan.

Spanish is the official language. Darija Arabic is also spoken by 40–50% of the population.
