Several Migrants Die in English Channel Crossing

News summary

Tragedy struck as several migrants, including a child, died attempting to cross the English Channel from France to England, according to French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau. The perilous journey in small, overloaded boats continues despite strong currents in one of the world's busiest shipping lanes. Retailleau condemned the smugglers responsible for these dangerous crossings, promising to intensify efforts against such criminal organizations. Fourteen individuals were reported on the boat involved, with one person rescued and transported to a hospital. This incident follows another earlier this year where 12 migrants perished when their boat capsized. Authorities are expected to provide further updates on the situation in Calais.
