GB News can reveal the four main beaches in Belgium where local police are facing frightening levels of violence, in a highly sinister new development in the Channel migrant crisis. Belgian police say former Afghan and Iraqi soliders are being employed by smuggling gangs to stop police intercepting launches from a ten mile stretch of coast near the French border. Many hundreds of migrants are now launching from those beaches instead of France, where police there have increased patrols of late. GB News can reveal that so far this year, people smugglers have launched 33 dinghies from Belgium, compared to just one or two on an average year. With perfect weather confirmed for this weekend, authorities in Belgium are braced for more launches and likely violent confrontations. #MigrantCrisis #Migration #uknews #GBNews Keep up to date with GB News at gbnews.com or on X @GBNEWS Become a Friend of GB News: gbnews.com/friend
