Immigration officials are dealing with another 36 suspected migrants stopped off the Kent coast.

Border Force were called to three boats yesterday.

The Home Office says three women and six boys were among those on board and most of them said they were from Iran.

We're told their cases are now being looked at after they had medical checks.

They were stopped less than 24 hours after another 38 people were found in boats in the Channel near Dover.
