Shocking moment French Navy spotted handing life jackets to small boat migrants making their way towards Britain
المصدر: GB News | Source: GB NewsGB News has obtained footage of the French Navy handing life jackets to small-boat migrants as they cross the English Channel.
The footage showed dozens of migrants clad in bright orange flotation devices as a French boat floated alongside.
Sailors aboard the Navy vessel could be seen hurling life jackets to migrants whose hands were outstretched to catch them.
It comes as more than 10,000 individuals have made the illegal crossing into Britain this year.
TRENDINGStoriesVideosYour SayThe footage was obtained just hours after hundreds of illegal migrants embarked on a dangerous 22-hour Channel crossing overnight.
Three migrant boats were launched from beaches around the Dieppe area at 7am yesterday, more than 100 miles south of the normal launch points around Dunkirk and Calais.
They eventually made it to UK waters early this morning, and more than 160 small boat migrants were picked up and taken to Dover harbour.
Smuggler gangs have been moving operations out of previous launcg sites, going as far as Belgium, to dodge French police intercepting beach launches.
