A shooting near a migrant camp in Dunkirk, France, left 5 people dead on December 14, 2024. A 22-year-old man, claiming responsibility for the killings, surrendered at a nearby Ghyvelde police station. He confessed to first shooting a 29-year-old in Wormhout, followed by the killing of four others at the Loon-Plage camp, including two security agents and two migrants. Witnesses described the attacker, believed to be a French national, opening fire with a shotgun. Authorities are investigating the motives behind the attack, which targeted Kurdish migrants who had recently been rescued after a failed Channel crossing.
