A large number of migrants, reported to be over 500, have crossed the English Channel to Kent in a single day, with some outlets specifying that this is the busiest day for such crossings this year. There have been reports of casualties, including at least one death and possibly as many as four, amid concerns about the risks faced by migrants on these journeys. The UK is looking to Denmark as it responds to the situation, and lawmakers are set to investigate the surge in migrant crossings.
