France to Intercept Migrant Boats at Sea

France is going to start stopping small boats that migrants use to cross the Channel to get to England.

This is a big change because France used to be careful about stopping boats at sea to keep people safe.

Now, they want to stop the boats before people get on them.

Migrants pay a lot of money to smugglers to help them cross.

There have been many people crossing this year, and some have died trying.

The UK government is under pressure because of the large number of migrants arriving.
