(BBC) The number of people crossing the English Channel in small boats has passed 15,000 for the year so far.
The figure was reached as the government announced a partnership with social media companies aimed at stopping smuggling gangs advertising.
The voluntary partnership will see the firms working with the National Crime Agency (NCA).
An £11m Online Capability Centre will be set up by the NCA and Home Office to identify content.
According to Home Office figures, after no crossings since 26 July, 262 people crossed on Friday and 77 on Saturday, bringing this year’s total to 15,072.
