BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Diplomatically focused framing: the conflict is treated as an institutional dispute between Madrid and Rome, with almost no mention of the human migration aspect.

Preference for Spanish sources: the two articles largely relay the version and quotes from the Spanish government, without direct Italian counterpoint.

Limited coverage of the human toll and information aspect: the deaths in Ceuta and the online influence campaign reported by NGOs are not mentioned.
