The Telegraph's David Chazan reported live from the queue of migrants and refugees waiting to be processed:
Riot police confronted people in the camp on Sunday night, but Monday's operations were peaceful.
Officials have predicted that 2,500 people will leave the camp, which will be dismantled Tuesday.
Doha-based Al-Jazeera also streamed the operations to move people out of the camp:
In France, Le Monde's Maryline Baumard was also live on Facebook from Calais:

The series of Facebook Live videos from the camp comes after many questioned the appropriateness of using the feature for the coverage of the battle for Mosul in Iraq.
In perhaps a first for wartime media coverage, news channels have streamed the ongoing battle live on Facebook. Al-Jazeera and Channel 4 in the UK are among those sharing a live feed from the Kurdish media group, Rudaw.
That prompted several users to question the notion of "liking" and pasting emojis on scenes of war and devastation.

But Jon Laurence, digital editor of Channel 4 News, defended the choice:
“On live streaming the Mosul footage, we wanted to bring the one of the most significant stories of our time to our viewers as it happened. Given the nature of conflict – we are cautious and vigilant that the material is appropriate at all times and have measures in place to stop the stream when necessary," he told The Guardian.
“We apply the same editorial standards to Facebook Lives that we do to our award-winning programme and that means ensuring that they are effectively supervised at all times; this is the case with every new platform or format with which we engage.”
