🔴 Migrant search to resume after Channel tragedy, with at least four more people feared missing ➡️ At least four people died in the tragedy, which saw a fishing boat rescue 31 people from the freezing cold waters
What is believed to be the sound of a child crying could be heard in the background. The charity sent back several messages to the phone which were not received.
Kent MP Sir Roger Gale told the Commons on Wednesday that some survivors were still “fighting for their lives” in hospital, with women and children among the casualties. Footage broadcast by Sky News showed a group of people, squashed inside a sinking dinghy which was filling with water, being hauled up over the side of a boat with rope.
“Our hearts go out to all those affected and our tributes to those involved in the extensive rescue operation.”
