Moment up to 100 migrants make landfall in UK: Group of more than 40 arrive on Kent beach in front of shocked sunbathers as another 50 – including women and young children – reach shoreline nearby
A dinghy of 40 migrants landed on a beach in Kent at 11am this morning in front of sunbathers before they fled.
Footage shows shocked beachgoers watching while the migrants sprint off in different directions after their vessel managed to arrive at Oldstairs Bay in Kingsdown without being intercepted by Border Force.
A witness told the Sun that within five minutes a police car had arrived but all of the migrants had already disappeared.
