AFP Photo 📷 @sameer_aldoumy - 'Just God, the water and us': risking the Channel 'death route' to Britain -⁣
.⁣
For three weeks, two AFP teams followed Walid, a Kuwaiti, Falah, an Iraqi and his two daughters, nine-year-old Arwa and 13-year-old Rawane, who is severely diabetic, from the town of Grande-Synthe in northern France to Dover in the south of England via the choppy waters of the Channel.⁣
.⁣
Just 33 kilometres (21 miles) separate the French coast from the white cliffs of Dover, visible on a clear day, but the crossing is one of the world's busiest -- and most dangerous.⁣
.⁣
Still, more and more people are attempting the risky passage.⁣
.⁣
Between January 1 and August 31, 6,200 migrants tried their luck, according to French maritime authorities.⁣
.⁣
In the whole of 2019, 2,294 migrants attempted to cross.⁣

Those who have a bit more cash get an inflatable dinghy. Those who don't resort to paddleboards, kayaks or a simple rubber ring.
