(BBC) Six boats carrying 90 migrants have been intercepted off the Kent coast.
The Home Office said 79 men and 11 women had crossed the Channel on Saturday, 16 May, on small boats.
A spokesman said the migrants travelled from France and were taken to Dover, where they were medically assessed.
Where appropriate, immigration officials will detain some of them, while others will be sent back to France, the spokesman added.
He said: “These attempted crossings are reckless acts facilitated by criminals that we are determined to stop.”
