Paris, Nov 30 (Prensa Latina) The French maritime rescue services reported the rescue of about 240 migrants in the waters of the English Channel, in several incidents that occurred to small boats in recent hours.
According to official government data, 4,159 people have made the treacherous journey across the 21-mile Dover Straits in 96 dinghies or other small craft.
An international team of law enforcement officials has broken up a vast ring of migrant smugglers operating across Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and France. Still, the strike isn t likely to end illegal migration across the English Channel into Britain.
