💨 Abstract

Two migrants, a woman and a child, died during an illegal overnight sea crossing from France to Britain. This brings the 2025 death toll on this dangerous route to at least 14. A small boat with nearly 80 migrants was found off the north coast of France, with French rescue services stopping to help 10 individuals, while the rest continued on to British waters. Earlier this week, another fatal incident occurred, with one migrant dead and one missing.
