A Sudanese man has become the ninth person to die trying to access the Channel Tunnel since June. The man,who was between 25 to 30 years old, was crushed to death by a lorry early on Wednesday. Overall, more than 1,000 migrants have attempted to access the Channel Tunnel.

The man's body was discovered at 6:00 a.m. on Wednesday, as dawn was breaking. He appeared to have been crushed as he was attempting to climb over a shuttle.

The latest developments in the continuing drama of the Calais Migrant Crisis has escalated further, with Prime Minister David Cameron pledging that the U.K. government would do everything in its power to respond to the refugee crisis, according to BBC News.

The interior minister of France also stated that 120 police reinforcements are being sent to aid in the crisis. Meanwhile, sections of the M20 in Kent have been closed both ways in order to allow extra parking space for lorries, in what is being dubbed as Operation Stack.

Speaking at London in lieu of the Calais Crisis, French interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve, placed the blame on Eurotunnel for the surge of problems at the freight terminal, reports The Independent.

"I would like you to reconsider urgently the human resources that you devote to the security of this site," he said.

After Wednesday's fatal incident, Eurotunnel has stated that migrants have already been removed from the site. Freight services however, remain to be disrupted.

The recent influx of refugees from different nations and the actions of the countries the asylum-seekers are trying to get into has gathered criticism from human rights groups, such as Amnesty International's take on recent refugee crises, covered in this HNGN article.
