BBC returns to beach where five migrants died - and many more will attempt crossing
The BBC's Andrew Harding was on the beach in Wimereux, northern France, on Tuesday morning as migrants boarded a dinghy heading for the UK.
As the overcrowded boat headed out to sea, there was a crush on board. Five people died, including a seven-year-old girl.
Two men have been charged with immigration offences. Our correspondent Andrew Harding returns to the scene to explain how events unfolded.
