Modern slavery and trafficking 'in every UK town and city'


Modern slavery and human trafficking in the UK is "far more prevalent than previously thought," the National Crime Agency has said.
The NCA said there were more than 300 live policing operations currently, with cases affecting "every large town and city in the country".
The agency estimated that there were tens of thousands of victims.
It said previous estimates of 10,000-13,000 victims in the UK were found to be the "tip of the iceberg".
"The more we look, the more we find," the NCA's vulnerabilities director Will Kerr said.
Mr Kerr said he had been shocked by what he had seen during this year's intensive efforts to break up gangs, with almost every major operation triggering even more investigations.
He warned that trafficking into modern slavery was now so widespread that ordinary people would be unwittingly coming into contact with victims every day.

They called on the President to demonstrate his” touted integrity” by resigning from office, saying he is “incapacitated and can no longer rule the country.”

[VIDEO] African migrants arrive Spanish beach, scatter before police arrive

A boat carrying dozens of African migrants landed on a Spanish beach in front of shocked holiday-makers.
Footage shows the migrants leaping out of a black inflatable dinghy (open boat with a mast and sails) and dashing across the sand on beaches at Cadiz in southern Spain, after crossing the Strait of Gibraltar.
The group managed to leave from the beach before the authorities arrived some time after.
The incident took place on Wednesday afternoon, with footage showing the boat coming up behind a man and a child taking a dip in the sea.

The migrants disperse hurriedly before police arrival.

As the boat pulls into shallow water, those on board leap out and run up the beach.
