The number of so-called “lorry drops” has increased dramatically, the French authorities noted. A “lorry drop” is when migrants hide in the back of a truck or any other vehicle carrying goods, and jump off after reaching the UK.
“Each lorry is packed with dozens of migrants and many are stopped before they reach England. But we are certain that a few get through. The estimate is around 200 a week. We know others are crossing in small boats or vans,” a regional security official said according to The Telegraph.
The latest figures given by French police show a significant surge compared to official data: the number of those who comes to the UK illegally has doubled over the last year, reaching 6,400, according a report released by the chief inspector of borders and immigration last month.
However, French police say that the real picture could show a much higher number of people arriving in Britain undetected.
First of all, security forces say that gangs of armed people around Calais stop trucks with goods to let migrants in. Also, they block the streets with trees and debris to ensure that the vehicles stop.
Authorities know this too, with the deputy mayor of Calais, Philippe Mignonet, describing the main motorway leading to the airport as a“no-go area” between 12:00am and 6:00am.
