Black-clad protesters in balaclavas block road at port of Dover in Kent

Dozens of people dressed in black and wearing balaclavas have blocked the road at the port of Dover in Kent, forcing closures in both directions.

Traffic on the A20 in and out of the port grinds to a halt as Kent police said they are in attendance and engaging with the group.

The Port of Dover described the event as a “public order incident.”
