At least five people, including a child, died Tuesday while trying to cross the English Channel.

French authorities said the deaths occurred when the engine of an overcrowded small boat, carrying more than 100 people, stopped off the coast of France and several people fell into the water.

Rescuers managed to save nearly 50 people, while the rest refused to disembark and continued their journey towards Britain after restarting the engine.

The attempt to cross the English Channel took place just hours after Britain passed legislation to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda.
