French authorities said at least 19 people have been injured following the crash, which took place at the Eurotunnel site in Pas-de-Calais. The coach driver is among those injured.


No deaths have been reported and no lives are in danger, officials said. The French emergency medical service (SAMU), a mobile intensive care unit (SMUR) helicopter, and the fire and rescue service (SDIS) are at the crash site.


The last two Eurostar trains running between Paris and London today were cancelled due to engineering works - not the incident, according to Eurostar. The Eurostar should run as expected tomorrow.
