Four people drown and dozens rescued in English Channel - BBC News

Four people have died and dozens were rescued after a small boat filled with migrants heading for British shores from France capsized in the freezing waters of the English Channel.

Lifeboats, helicopters and rescue teams working with the French and British navies responded to the emergency.

Attempts to stop the arrival of thousands of migrants in small boats have become a priority for the UK government.
