Another tragedy in the English Channel, 4 migrants lose their lives, among them

Several migrants, including a child, have lost their lives in their attempt to cross the English Channel.

French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau described the incident as a "terrible tragedy", noting that "the child was crushed to death in a boat".

Retailleau blamed human smugglers for the tragedy, saying they "have the blood of these people on their hands."

Citing local newspaper 'La Voix du Nord', foreign media reported that at least four migrants died in two separate incidents, including a small child.
