Gravelines, #France
A French police officer enters the sea in an attempt to prevent migrants and asylum seekers from boarding small boats. Officers used teargas and pepper spray to try to disperse hundreds of people trying to board boats, but were overwhelmed by the numbers. A record 15,000 migrants have left northern France and arrived in the UK this year.
