Every French patrol vessel was tasked with responding to the eight small boats.
The Dungeness RNLI lifeboat also raced into the middle of the Channel and went back to Dover, according to ship-tracking website Marine Traffic, because every Border Force boat was rescuing migrants.

The latest arrivals mean 7,228 have crossed the Channel on 131 boats, compared to 5,517 who arrived at the same point last year.

And in the record-breaking year of 2022 - when more than 45,000 migrants were intercepted - just 4,550 had made the crossing by April 8.
The record day so far this year was on March 2 when 582 people in 11 inflatables were rescued.
Labour has been accused of “rolling out the red carpet” for Channel migrants after allowing those shortlisted for deportation flights to Rwanda to claim asylum.
The Home Office confirmed cases will be “finalised” by the end of this year after the Conservatives previously ruled their bids inadmissible so they could be put on one-way flights to Kigali.
More than 5,600 migrants were shortlisted for deportation flights to Rwanda, the Daily Express revealed.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer scrapped the plan on his first day in office, prompting fury over the lack of deterrents to migrants hoping to cross the Channel.
Matt Vickers, shadow Home Office minister, said: “Labour promised to smash the gangs, but all they have done since getting in is roll out the red carpet for them.
“The migrant emergency needs more than weasel words – it needs tough action. Labour need to put petty party politics aside and listen to our ideas to reinstate the Rwanda plan, crack down on indefinite leave to remain and deport all foreign criminals.

“If they’re unwilling to work with us in the national interest, Labour should at least listen to the National Crime Agency who have said that a returns deterrent is the only way to stop the boats.
“Britain deserves better than this borders fiasco.”

A Home Office spokesperson said: "We all want to end dangerous small boat crossings, which threaten lives and undermine our border security.
"The people-smuggling gangs do not care if the vulnerable people they exploit live or die, as long as they pay and we will stop at nothing to dismantle their business models and bring them to justice.
"That's why this government has put forward a serious, credible plan to finally restore order to our asylum system, including tougher enforcement powers, ramping up returns to their highest levels for more than half a decade and a major crackdown on illegal working to end the false promise of jobs used by gangs to sell spaces on boats."
