Recovery of Rubber Boat in the English Channel

Recovery of a rubber boat used by migrants, in the English Channel. The people on the boat had been rescued earlier in the day by the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution).
Operation Ocean Witness is a six month Greenpeace UK operation, involving a new boat called Sea Beaver. The team will patrol the UK’s protected areas off the south coast and do what the government has so far failed to do - protect the UK’s marine protected areas from destructive fishing, a key Brexit promise which has been broken. Operation Ocean Witness will operate out of Newhaven from June until Autumn 2021.
