🏛 Fourteen Men on Trial Over 2019 Channel Disaster That Killed 31
Fourteen defendants have gone on trial in Paris on charges including involuntary homicide over the sinking of an inflatable dinghy in the English Channel that killed 31 migrants — the deadliest small-boat crossing disaster on record.
The vessel was bound for the UK when it sank approximately five years ago. The trial marks a significant moment of legal accountability for the people-smuggling networks that organise such crossings.
