In one incident, Border Force apprehended 15 people who had landed at Dungeness beach in Kent. People-smugglers made use of the continuing good weather today, with 35 migrants arriving on two Border Force boats before 10am. Four men who appeared to be North African were brought in to harbour on a small Border Force rhib. Border Force cutter Speedwell was docked in the harbour, as was the RNLI's Daniel L Gibson lifeboat. He handed the sleeping infant to a Border Force officer wearing a white boiler suit before disembarking with his partner.
