Good morning.
At around 9pm on 24 November 2021, a small boat carrying 33 migrants departed from Dunkirk, France in an attempt to cross the English Channel. Four hours later, that boat started to sink. Some of the occupants began making distress calls to British and French authorities requesting help. As the coast guard services on either side spent crucial hours going back and forth about responsibility for the rescue, the people on the boat were fighting for their lives.
