Buses have started taking the remaining asylum-seeking teenagers from the Calais refugee camp to undisclosed locations around France, as officials began the final stage of clearing the site. UK officials, wearing hi-vis jackets marked “Immigration Enforcement”, joined UNHCR staff as children were led on to buses shortly after 8am. French officials said around 300 women and children would be taken from a neighbouring building on Thursday to centres around France. The aim is to have no one left here.”She said she expected several hundred more children to join the 300 refugee children who were taken to the UK last month. The lack of information about where the buses were going had prompted anxiety and uncertainty among the younger residents of the camp.
