A dinghy carrying 157 people capsizes in the English Channel after its engine catches fire, multiple outlets report. The incident occurs at sea, and passengers end up in the water. Rescue efforts involve French vessels, with assistance from two British Border Security Command boats and an RNLI lifeboat. French authorities state that those rescued are taken toward France, with some being brought to Boulogne-sur-Mer. British vessels also take part in transferring survivors to France. Reporting from outlets including the Guardian and Evening Standard says that a total of 54 people are taken to France on British vessels. Other details about the remaining survivors are described more generally, with French and British services coordinating to pull people from the water following the capsize. The accounts are consistent that the engine fire precedes the capsizing and that rescue operations use both French and British assets, with arrivals in northern France including Boulogne-sur-Mer.
