00:00Britain and the European Union have begun implementing a post-Brexit deal on Gibraltar, aimed at making cross-border travel
00:08with Spain faster and easier.
00:11Under the new arrangements, Gibraltar residents can cross into Spain using their resident cards, while Spanish citizens can enter Gibraltar
00:20with a national identity card.
00:23The deal is designed to ease the movement of people and goods across the border.
00:28Around 15,000 people cross the border each day for work.
00:32Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Albares said the deal marks a new chapter for Gibraltar, Spain, Britain and the European Union.
00:40The move will improve cross-border connections, encourage investment and strengthen cooperation across the region.
00:46The agreement also ends years of uncertainty over Gibraltar's post-Brexit border arrangements.
00:53Gibraltar has been a British territory since 1713, but Spain continues to claim sovereignty over the enclave.
