Calais, stuck in to the Jungle { 20 images } Created 10 Oct 2014

About 1500 migrants are stuck in the Calais industrial area, every day they try to hide in the trucks heading in UK where they are looking for a better life. The situation is quite tense, they don't have any real shelter and they live in a tend camp called the 'Jungle' near the Calais harbor. Fews associations are trying to help giving them tends and cloth, but a cold winter is arriving and the conditions are getting worst. France government deployed the CRS (special police forces) and migrants reports frequent clashes when they try to get on the trucks.
