The Perejil Island crisis was a bloodless armed conflict between Spain and Morocco that took place on 11–20 July 2002. The incident took place over the small, uninhabited Perejil Island, when a squad of the Royal Moroccan Navy occupied it. After an exchange of declarations between both countries, the Spanish troops finally evicted the Moroccan infantry who had relieved their Navy comrades.
Perejil Island is a small rocky island under Spanish sovereignty and about the size of 15 football fields, lying 250 metres from Morocco, and 8 kilometres from the Spanish city of Ceuta, which borders Morocco, and 13.5 kilometres from mainland Spain. The island itself is unpopulated, only seldom visited by Moroccan shepherds.
