Smuggling gangs switch to mega-dinghies
A decline in small boat crossings to the UK has led people smuggling gangs to adopt new tactics, including preparing larger "mega-dinghies" to carry more migrants. These vessels often depart from greater distances and involve collaboration among rival gangs, with authorities intercepting many boats before they reach the UK. Despite increased police efforts in France and more robust maritime patrols, thousands of migrants continue to attempt the crossing, driven by the desire for better opportunities, while gangs raise prices and modify their methods to evade detection.
