Perilous Crossings: Continued Attempts at English Channel Journeys

A day after 12 migrants tragically died while trying to cross the English Channel, another group is making a similar attempt from northern France. Journalists from the Associated Press captured live footage of an inflatable boat carrying people at sea near Wimereux, close to the site of the previous incident.

Just a day after 12 migrants tragically died in a failed attempt to cross the English Channel, another boat carrying several dozen people is making a similar journey from northern France on Wednesday, seemingly heading toward Britain.

Associated Press journalists on a beach in Wimereux, situated on the northern French coastline close to Tuesday's deadly sinking site, are broadcasting live video footage. The footage shows an inflatable boat carrying people, presumably migrants, heading out to sea.
