Snippet:
At least four flimsy craft set off on Tuesday, each with around fifty people on board. Observers counted more than 250 men, women and children taking advantage of the first long stretch of calm weather this year. Some migrants had waited behind the dunes before running towards the water as the boats approached from offshore.
