Coverage that diverges · with one other country
Dominant nature of the crisis
Coverage aligned with this reading · with 4 other countries

BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Security-focused framing emphasizing military deployment and death tolls, with limited attention to migrants' individual circumstances and motivations.

Reliance on Spanish official sources (government, Guardia Civil, PP opposition) rather than Moroccan testimonies or civil society accounts.

Minimal coverage of bilateral diplomatic dimensions with Morocco, mentioned only in passing by FAZ without substantive analysis.
