Migrants seen trying to cross English Channel day after 12 people died

Just one day after 12 migrants died in a failed attempted crossing of the English Channel, another boat carrying several dozen people appears to be making another attempt from northern France on Wednesday, seemingly trying to head toward Britain. Journalists on a beach in Wimereux, on the northern French coastline and close to the site of Tuesday’s deadly sinking, broadcasted live video of an inflatable boat carrying people, seemingly migrants, out to sea. It comes as it was revealed a pregnant woman and six children were among 12 people who died after their boat sank trying to cross the English Channel.
