Migrants Leave The French Coast On A Rubber Boat Towards The UK

A small rubber boat with migrants leaves the French coast towards the English Channel in the dawn before the sunrise while a search and rescue vessels follows the dinghy to the French UK sea borders with a sailing boat in the background. Hundreds of small boats with refugees, asylum seekers and migrants have crossed the English Channel the past weeks while smugglers overload the boats with people and the French police is witnessing while sometimes intervenes. The UK and France began working on a rule, the one-in, one-out. According to the official data from the UK Home Office on August 15, 2x boats arrived illegally in the UK with 116 people.
