A migrant died near Calais while trying to reach England hidden in the trailer of a truck on Saturday. The young man is the sixth migrant to die since the start of the year on the border between Calais and England.

A gathering in his memory will take place this evening in Calais. Since the 1990s and after the closure in 2002 of a Red Cross center in Sangatte (Pas-de-Calais), hundreds of exiles have crowded into tents and makeshift shelters in Calais or Dunkirk.
