It was reported that several Eritreans were found hiding dangerously in a refrigerated truck transporting vegetables.

The Eritreans, who are said to be 15 in number, including a child, were hiding in a refrigerated truck and were heading to the United Kingdom from France.

The Eritrean refugees were found in the refrigerated compartment of the truck on Saturday, and the truck driver said they called him because of the extreme cold.

In addition French medical professionals provided medical assistance to the illegal immigrants who were suffering from severe cold.

A truck carrying vegetables to the United Kingdom stopped for a break in northern France when the driver reported hearing cries and screams to local authorities.
