Terrifying final hours of Channel migrants tragedy - BBC News

20 of the 29 migrants who died in the English Channel in November have been identified as being Iraqi Kurdistan after an investigation.

In freezing waters a group of men, women and children treaded water and held each other’s hands to stay afloat.

The dinghy in which they had hoped to reach British shores had a broken motor and deflated.
