Calais 'Jungle' stragglers and minors spend another night at camp Calais 'Jungle' stragglers and minors spend another night at camp
(about 3 hours later)
Migrants left in the Calais Jungle area have been allowed to sleep in some shelters that remain standing at the site, reports say. At least 80 migrants including children have spent the night in shelters that remain in the now otherwise deserted Calais "Jungle" camp.
Aid groups are providing blankets and food to at least 70 people, including dozens of minors. France and the UK have traded accusations about the children's treatment.
The British government has reminded France that it must "properly protect" children after many youngsters slept rough on Wednesday night. Two large fires broke out on Friday morning at the camp, from which almost 6,000 people have been evacuated.
More than 5,800 people have been evacuated from the camp this week. The evacuation is due to be completed on Friday and people refusing to leave would be arrested, Calais police said.
This includes 226 adults and 16 minors that left on coaches in the last 24 hours, the Agence France-Presse news agency reports.

The camp is now almost completely deserted. Demolition work continues and authorities have vowed to completely clear the site by Monday.

Local authorities declared the resettlement operation over on Wednesday, but charities have said the announcement was premature, given those still roaming the site. At least 1,500 minors have been staying at a special container camp at the site, but it has been full and many children have also reportedly been sleeping rough.
"You can't say the operation is over when there are people left," said Anne-Louise Coury of Doctors Without Borders (MSF). The British government said it had told the French authorities that they must "properly protect" children.
"The state still has a serious obligation towards migrants who are minors." But French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said in a statement that the best way to protect the children was for the UK to "quickly execute its responsibilities to take in these minors".
At least 1,500 minors are being housed in a special container camp at the site, which is full. The rest of those evacuated have been taken to reception centres around France, where they are being processed and will be able to apply for asylum. The UK has agreed to take in nearly 250 of the children.
'We may never know where they've gone'
Save the Children said dozens of children have been exposed to "serious amounts of danger" during the clearance process. Some might have run away on their own, the charity warned.Save the Children said dozens of children have been exposed to "serious amounts of danger" during the clearance process.

UK Home Secretary Amber Rudd spoke to her French counterpart Bernard Cazeneuve earlier to "stress the need for children who remain in Calais to be properly protected", a Home Office spokesperson said. The rest of those evacuated have been taken to reception centres around France, where they are being processed and will be able to apply for asylum.
More than 200 minors have arrived in the UK since 17 October. Transfers are continuing. But aid workers believe that hundreds, or perhaps even thousands of migrants might have fled the area before the clearance operation began on Monday.

But Pascal Brice, head of the Office for Refugees and Stateless People, said on Wednesday that everyone who had left the site had been registered by authorities.
Caroline Gregory of Calais Action, a British charity, said about 100 unaccompanied children had been left in the camp overnight on Wednesday.
"I spent the entire night here," one young Afghan told the AFP news agency. "I am in the queue for minors to go to England. I have family there."
Fabienne Buccio, the prefect of the Pas-de-Calais region, said that some of those who had slept in the camp overnight had travelled from other parts of France.
She also said the number of minors who slept rough on Wednesday night had been 68, and that they would be moved to centres elsewhere in France.
