A group of people, reportedly Chinese nationals, were located in remote Western Australia on the weekend. The boat's arrival is understood to be the third illegal maritime landing on Australian soil in under six months. “It’s not just accidental that three boats have arrived,” Mr Jennings said. “What that probably means is that more are on the way or will be soon.”
