Description

Over 40,000 migrants have crossed the English Channel this year, with a record-breaking 737 arrivals on December 13th. This surge ends a 28-day hiatus, with Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood attributing it to weather changes. French authorities have prevented 20,000 crossings, but the situation remains complex, with no easy solutions in sight.
