Child in wheelchair among migrants arriving in UK after crossing English Channel
A child in a wheelchair appears to be part a group of migrants who were brought ashore in Dover after crossing the English Channel.
Pictures show men, women and children wearing life jackets and blankets disembarking from a Border Force vessel at the Kent port on Tuesday. They are the first arrivals in a week since 206 people made the journey on August 19, according to Home Office figures. A total of 19,294 people had arrived in the UK after crossing the Channel as of August 26, 2% lower than the same point in 2023 (19,741) and 20% lower than in 2022 (24,153).
