Fewer Albanians pass La Manshi! The Times of London: There will be a new wave in

While illegal dinghy crossings through the English Channel between France and England have not stopped, the number of Albanians in them has dropped significantly. According to The Times of London, government sources emphasize that there is expected to be an increase in the arrival of asylum seekers from Albania in the spring months.

As proved by the recent tragedy with dinghies in the English Channel where 4 immigrants lost their lives and several others are lost, fortunately among them the number of Albanians currently results in one immigrant, who was in the dinghy and he has survived.

Contrary to the perception and rhetoric that one third of those who cross illegally to the English shores are Albanians, now it is the official British sources themselves, which according to The Times of London, emphasize that there is a significant decrease in the number of Albanians who try to cross illegally during the last months, from 12 thousand in September to 13 thousand in total so far.

But these sources underline that there is expected to be an increase in crossings by Albanians in the spring months, starting from the "seasonal trend" of the movements of Albanians from the experiences of the past years through other illegal routes such as through trucks and barges or through airlines without having visa, writes The Times of London.

While the number of raft crossings continues despite the freezing weather, even on the same night of the last tragedy in the English Channel, another raft has been sinking close to the first raft with 50 people and 5 migrants have fallen into the sea , but fortunately they were rescued by the British border guards, news that was surprisingly not announced that day, as is usually the case.

So according to the Ministry of Defense, on Thursday it was learned that 401 young immigrants were spotted crossing with 8 rafts the day before the tragedy.

It has been learned that Rishi Sunak's promise to assign 730 new employees to the Border Force as part of a new operational command specialized to fight illegal crossings in the strait will take from nine to one year for their recruitment and training. About 100 of them will be deployed in the new headquarters dedicated to raft crossings./ The Times of London
