82 migrants rescued in several missions
During the night of Jan 18 and on Jan 19, several departures of migrant boats were reported to the CROSS Gris-Nez in the Strait of Dover. In order to monitor the boats, the following resources were deployed by CROSS Gris-Nez: - the hydrographic survey vessel (BH) 'Lapérouse'; -the rescue vessels 'Minck' and 'Ridens'; - the patrol boat (VCSM) 'Oyapock'; - the rigid inflatable boat 'ESMP 04' from the Dunkirk Maritime Gendarmerie; - the patrol boat DFP1 'Jacques Oudart Fourmentin'; - the lifeboat 'Notre Dame des Flandres-SNS 276' of the SNSM station in Graveline; - the hydrography survey vessel 'BH LA´pérouse -A 791'. On Jan 19 at approximately 5:45 a.m., the 'Ridens' reported a makeshift boat in the Malo-les-Bains area. The CROSS deployed the 'Ridens', which launched its RIB to monitor the boat, which headed towards a group of migrants waiting on the beach to board, which began around 7:00 a.m. During this phase, the RIB rescued three migrants, who were first transferred to the 'Ridens' and then to the 'ESMP 04', to be taken back to the port of Dunkirk, where they were dropped off at around 12:30 p.m. Meanwhile, the 'Ridens' and its RIB continued to monitor the migrant boat heading out to sea. It was taken into custody by British resources at around 2:30 p.m. At around 8:00 a.m., another migrant boat was reported by the Dunkirk semaphore off the Braek breakwater. The CROSS Gris-Nez deployed the 'Oyapock', which quickly relocated it. At around 9:20 a.m., the 'Oyapock' rescued eight migrants, who were requesting assistance. The remaining occupants of the boat refused the offered assistance and continued on their way. At around 10:15 a.m., the 'BH Lapérouse' was dispatched by CROSS to relieve the 'Oyapock', which was to disembark the eight migrants rescued on board. However, given the rapidly deteriorating condition of the precarious boat, which still carried the majority of the group of migrants, the 'Lapérouse' launched its own boat to assist the 'Oyapock' and rescue all the migrants, who were now requesting assistance from the state resources. In total, 79 people were rescued and taken aboard the 'Oyapock'. They disembarked in Dunkirk and were cared for by land services around 12:30 p.m. Seven of them were taken to the Dunkirk hospital.
151 migrants rescued by numerous means
On the night of Nov 30, numerous departures of migrant boats were reported to the CROSS Gris-Nez in the Strait of Dover. On the evening, a passenger ship located a boat off the coast of Calais. The CROSS engaged the 'Abeille Normandie' to monitor the situation on the overloaded boat. Following a distress call, the CROSS also engaged the lifeboat 'SNS 077-Notre dame du Risba'" from the Calais SNSM station to assist the boat. Once on site, the lifeboat recovered two people from the sea, who were suffering from hypothermia and dropped them off at the Calais quay to be taken care of by the land-based rescue services. While the 'Abeille Normandie' maintained surveillance, some of the people on board the boat requested assistance. The tug crew recovered 73 people, including one diabetic person and three with minor burns. The CROSS then set up a telephone conference with the maritime medical coordination emergency medical service (SCMM) in Le Havre and the ship. The deployment of a medical team from the SMUR in Boulogne-sur-Mer was recommended to take care of the injured. The CROSS deployed ta Dauphin helicopter of the French Navy base in Le Touque, which hoisted the medical team aboard the 'Abeille Normandie'. At the same time, the CROSS deployed the SAR vessel 'Ridens' to take over surveillance of the boat with the remaining people. After a few hours, the nine people on board the boat requested assistance from the 'Ridens'. They were rescued and dropped off at the quay in Calais. At the same time, the medical team on board the 'Abeille Normandie' did not recommend a medical evacuation, but medical care at the quay, once the migrants were dropped off in Boulogne-sur-Mer. During the night, the CROSS engaged the hydrographic vessel 'Lapérouse' of the French Navy for the surveillance of a boat off the coast of Calais. Once on site, the 'Lapérouse' launched its semi-rigid boat and noted that the boat was overloaded and in poor condition. The CROSS then engaged the 'Abeille Normandie' to reinforce surveillance of the boat. The 'Lapérouse' initially recovered four people, two of whom had fallen into the water, and transferred them to the emergency tug. A few hours after the start of the surveillance, all people on board requested assistance. The 'Abeille Normandie' recovered 63 people on board. The 67 people rescued by the 'Lapérouse' and the tug were dropped off at the quay in Boulogne-sur-Mer, where they were taken care of by the land rescue services. In total, 151 people were rescued.
