About 150 migrants have reportedly attempted to storm the Channel Tunnel terminal in Calais in a bid to board UK-bound freight trains, leading to fresh disruption to channel services.

Freight and passenger services were delayed after migrants attempted to access restricted areas on the French side,Eurotunnel said.

French riot police were reportedly on the scene.

A Eurotunnel spokesman said: "Eurotunnel reiterates its call to the authorities to provide a solution to the migrant crisis and restore order to the Calais region."

Kent Police reinstated Operation Stack on Sunday, just hours after the contingency plan, which sees freight traffic queued on sections of the M20, had been brought to an end.

But it was lifted again by about 3pm, with police warning motorists of residual delays.


Last week lorry drivers faced long delays as they were held in miles of queues in Operation Stack as a result of disruption, caused by industrial action, at Calais.

Ferry services at Dover appeared to be operating as normal.

A spokesman for the Port of Dover said that "no ferry traffic is being held in Operation Stack and the Port of Dover remains open for business".

Dan Cook, the operations director of Europa Worldwide Group, a logistics firm, said "marauding mobs" were effectively halting trade.

"We have had vehicles on the motorway in broad daylight being surrounded by marauding mobs racing around, opening doors, cutting trailers, climbing into the back," he said.

"We have experienced quite a bit of theft and damage to customers' products."

About 3,000 people displaced from countries including Eritrea, Sudan, Syria and Afghanistan setting up camp near the port of Calais. Many hope to make the trip to the UK.

French aid workers have reported a "catastrophic" situation, with predictions that 2,000 more migrants could arrive over the summer at the camp, dubbed Jungle II.

Home Secretary Theresa May and Bernard Cazeneuve, her French counterpart, this week agreed to increase joint intervention fund to improve security around the port and the Channel Tunnel.

Why isn't the police rounding them up ?

Because the French seem to think this isnt their problem as they want to get into the UK whilst ignoring the fact that the migrants are on French soil and it is their problem.

Many are being sent to where the **** they came from,but they are like cockroaches,you evict some,more come.
And the police is outnumbered and are fed up.... and the hypocrite "associations" are here and to cry/denounce about police brutality.... i hope they'll face one day what the police officers face,then they'll shut the **** up,so,but the real problem is Italy,they shouldn't let these persons in liberty,because they come from Italy.... and why the **** is Italy "rescuing" them on Libya's coast ?
It is a real invasion,we don't need them,there are no works,it is the crisis,we don't need more alien people.
