Calais migrant camps dismantled 10 years after the Jungle
- Ten years ago, thousands of migrants lived in the 'Great Jungle' camp in Calais, France.
- Today, dozens of smaller camps are scattered along the coastline and are dismantled every 48 hours on average.
- Migrants continue to face intimidation from police and far-right agitators.
- The primary goal for migrants remains crossing the Channel to reach the UK.
- The situation in Calais has become harsher than ever since the Jungle's demolition.
