Almost 2,000 migrants have been bussed away from the “Jungle” in Calais as French authorities clear the camp.

At least 7,000 people have been living there in squalid conditions.

Migrants queued peacefully to be processed, but there are concerns some will refuse to go because they still want to get to the UK.

Almost 200 children from the camp have been brought to the UK, some of them under the “Dubs” arrangement, according to UK Home Secretary Amber Rudd.

The number includes 60 girls who were at high risk of sexual exploitation, she said.

But process of transferring some of the estimated 1,300 unaccompanied children from the camp was halted on Monday at the request of the French.

The dismantling of the camp is expected to start on Tuesday.

Long queues formed earlier outside reception centres in the camp as the French authorities worked to determine whether individual migrants were with family members or travelling alone, and whether they were deemed to be vulnerable.

After processing, they boarded buses to different parts of France where they will be given the opportunity to claim asylum, or face deportation.

At least 40 of the 60 coaches planned to transport them have now left, according to BBC correspondents at the scene.
