Border officials in the UK and France have said there has been a "really significant" drop in the number of migrants crossing the English Channel this year in small boats.
Official figures are down by over a third compared with 2022.
The UK has helped to fund a doubling of French police patrolling the border along with other measures like drones.
But tens of thousands of migrants remain ready to attempt the dangerous journey.
