Dramatic Calais Jungle before and after pics show how the migrant squat has been demolished
The site was flattened despite stiff resistance from migrants
THESE jaw-dropping aerial pictures show the Calais migrant camp dubbed 'The Jungle' before and after the rickety buildings were pulled down by the French authorities.
The now-razed camp gained notoriety after becoming a vast, lawless slum.
Authorities cleared the last of the camp's makeshift shelters Monday night after evacuating 5,000 migrants to temporary housing around France.
French President Francois Hollande says migrants won't be allowed to resettle at the controversial site.
In an interview published Tuesday in La Voix du Nord newspaper, Hollande is quoted as saying, "I promise (Calais residents) that there will not be a new settlement."
He said more than 1,000 underage migrants now housed in containers in Calais will move within days to "dedicated centres" where British authorities can study their cases.
Hollande urged Britain to "do its share" to take in child migrants. Migrants fleeing fighting and poverty in the Middle East and Africa converged on Calais in hopes of reaching Britain.
However, a group of migrants moved from the Jungle camp to an Alpine holiday resort say they have one aim — to get back to Calais and into the UK.
Afghan refugee Ali Hamazi and his pals were bussed 13 hours to the village of Champtercier on Thursday.
Their group of 100 are among more than 8,000 sent to reception centres around France after the refugee camp was torn down this week.
But as they hang around at a bus stop hours after arriving at the former holiday camp, they are already planning the journey to the place they really want to call home — Britain.
