The immigrant dies while trying to cross the English channel

The French naval authorities said that the immigrant died during an attempt to cross the channel in a small boat from northern France to England.

The PAS-Calais Governorate said in a statement that in the sixties of the sixties, he suffered from the arrest of the heart on the boat he was carrying and other immigrants on Saturday.

He added that the boat returned to the beach and the man, but despite the efforts of the police and the doctor, her death was announced at the scene.

He is the sixth person who died while trying to cross the channel this year.

The boat set out from Calais in northern France on Saturday morning and “quickly returned to the beach with a person in arresting the hearts on the plane,” said the French naval province of the channel and the northern Sea to Agence France Presse.

“This boat was launched again as soon as it came down from the people who wanted to get off the beach,” he added.

The authorities said that the boat was “loaded strongly”, but the number of people on board was not less.

The figures of the home office indicate that more than 1,600 immigrants crossed the channel in small boats last week, when 51 people arrived on Friday alone.

3,720 people crossed this year, an increase of 11 % in the same period last year.

A record number of immigrants died while trying to conduct the dangerous crossing in 2024.

According to the illegitimate trafficking office (OLMIT), 78 people died while trying to reach England on small boats last year, the highest number since the first crossing in 2018.

The United Kingdom and France have intensified efforts to stop the Channels crossings, including intensifying patrols on French beaches, objection to small boats and arresting smugglers who organize crossings.

In a statement on Friday, the Ministry of the Interior said: “We all want to end the dangerous small boat crossings, which threaten lives and undermine our border security.

“The gangs that wander around people do not care if the weak people who exploit them live or die, as long as they pay. We will not stop at anything to dismantle their business models and bring them to justice.”

On February 27, Interior Minister Evit Cooper met her French counterpart, Interior Minister Bruno Retario, to agree on a set of measures aimed at handling gangs that attract people.

This includes the specialized intelligence unit and the new judicial police in Dunkirk to accelerate the arrest and prosecution of the residents of the people who train for drones to help intercept the boats before they arrive at the sea.

The French authorities will stop immigrants on the ground, but not as soon as they reach the sea.
