Dazed migrants recount ordeal after 'Jungle' blaze
Huddled under blankets, migrants in the Calais "Jungle" recounted Wednesday how they fled a fire that ripped through tents and shacks in the night after the death knell had sounded for the notorious camp. A French spokesman said desperate migrants had started the blaze, which occurred just hours after the authorities began to demolish the settlement on Tuesday, although camp residents denied the claim. The trio queued outside a registration centre where they hoped to be interviewed later to make their case for being allowed into Britain.
