140 migrants rescued in Channel
Hundreds of protesters in Portsmouth blocked roads after around 140 migrants were rescued from a small boat in the English Channel. Police faced off with demonstrators at Eastney Beach, where a dispersal order was issued, and efforts were made to prevent the migrants from being transported to processing centers. The protests coincided with increased crossing attempts from France, with authorities vowing to step up efforts to combat small-boat crossings and smuggling gangs organizing the journeys.
