Settlement Growth in the Nile Delta - Egypt

Handout Photomontage shows Settlement Growth in the Nile Delta. The United Nations’ World Urbanisation Prospects 2025 was published on 17 November 2025. Drawing on data from the Joint Research Centre’s Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL), developed under the Copernicus Emergency Management Service (CEMS), the report tracks changes in population distribution across more than 12,000 urban settlements. It highlights a global shift in settlement patterns, with the majority of the world’s population now living in urban areas. This image, created with GHSL data, focuses on the Nile Delta in Egypt, one of the world’s most densely populated regions. By comparing estimates of built-up surface at three points in time, it shows how the extent of urban development has changed between 1975 and 2025, along with projections for 2075. Using satellite data and national census inputs, GHSL provides a broad range of data on human settlements worldwide, including estimates of built-up surfaces per square kilometre and, at even

Over 30 Intercepted Trying to Reach Ceuta Coast - Spain

More than thirty people have been intercepted while trying to reach the coast of Ceuta and taken aboard an inflatable boat of the Moroccan forces, on August 12, 2025, in Ceuta (Spain). One of the young men tried to evade capture by swimming and disregarding the officers' orders to stop. In the face of his resistance, the agents decided to leave the intercepted persons on the beach and return for him to be rescued and taken back to the Moroccan maritime base. The action is part of the joint device that Morocco and Spain maintain to contain the attempts of entry by sea to Ceuta. This operation includes coordinated patrols, exchange of information in real time and rescues in waters close to the border, with the aim of stopping both swimming crossings and those carried out in small boats.
