France says clearance of Calais camp expected to end today

France says that the clearance of the “Jungle” refugee camp in Calais is expected to end today.

This is the second day of operations to tear down the squalid settlement in northern France.

Around half of the camp’s estimated population of 6,000 to 8,000 migrants have been transferred out since Monday, boarding buses to centers around France.
