BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Security-centered framing: emphasis on border control collapse and flow magnitude rather than on migrants' individual journeys.

Preference for Russian official sources and state media (RT, TASS) relaying a critical reading of European migration policies, at the expense of direct Spanish or Moroccan sources.

Limited coverage of structural causes of migration from Morocco and local humanitarian responses, with framing prioritizing perceived Spanish state failure.
