Although there is not much publicity, the situation in Calais is still far from stable. There are still immigrants and their incidents of fights with the uniformed services.
Local authorities are trying to restrict the settlement of illegal immigrants. At the same time, actions are carried out to evict and dismantle the camps, and an example of this could be actions from yesterday morning. The police cordoned off the beach around Gravelines, east of Calais. Then the gendarmes combed the area for an hour and a half, catching illegal residents and dismantling their tents.
Actions of this type are carried out regularly, even every two days. They can also turn into riots, as exemplified by the events of April 22. At that time glass, stones and other heavy objects flew towards the French. Four officers were injured, including two policemen and two gendarmes. One car was set on fire by immigrants and it was the delivery van of the British humanitarian organization sent to Calais to help immigrants!
