GBA Short: The Deadly Eurotunnel
Eurotunnel: Thousands of immigrants coming from Northern and Western Africa and the Middle East have been attempting to breach the tunnel running between Northern France and the UK, connecting the two countries under the English Channel. People attempt to sneak into the UK through the “Chunnel” all the time, but lately it’s becoming even more of an issue. People are getting injured and even dying trying to cut fences, jump onto trucks, and run across busy roadways. There have been almost 4,ooo people who have attempted to illegally head into Britain with 8 total deaths. Authorities have been working on ending the problem at its start, before they even reach the Northern French city that starts the tunnel. The British Prime Minister is also attempting to make sure if any immigrants are caught, they are sent back to where they came from to deter any more from trying the same thing. It’s unfortunate that people feel as though risking their lives on dangerous roads is better than their current country’s situation. We should all be working toward a better life for all, regardless of where they came from.
