Home Secretary Theresa May confirms that more British police officers will be deployed to France to help deal with crowd trouble at Euro 2016.

Home Secretary Theresa May has confirmed that more British police officers will be deployed to France to help security at Euro 2016.

Groups of football fans, including those supporting England, have been involved in numerous brawls during the tournament.

Five English people have been jailed in Marseille for their alleged participation in violent clashes over the weekend.

Ahead of Thursday's Group B match between England and Wales in Lens, the Home Secretary told the Commons that more police officers would be sent to France following the "deeply disturbing" crowd trouble.

The officers travelling across the Channel are specifically trained in football disorder.

Officers from the British Transport Police will also be deployed in order to provide security at the rail services following a request from the French authorities.
