A gunfight erupted in the Grande-Synthe migrant camp in northern Franceovernight with "forty shots fired", four wounded, and special police sent in to quell clashes thought to involve rival banks of smugglers.
Two men were treated overnight for gunshot wounds, a third for stab wounds and a woman for blows to the head.
Four people were being held for questioning on charges of attempted voluntary homicide, according to prosecutors at nearby Dunkirk.
Police believe the fight erupted between .rival people smuggling gangs against a backdrop of simmering tensions between Muslims and Christians in the camp.
David Michaux, a CRS anti-riot officer from the Unsa-police union, told Le Figaro: "There is a real problem of Muslims and non-Muslims. Most of the camp's 3,000-odd occupants are Muslim Kurds from Iraq, Iran and Syria but a minority are Christians from Iran.
"The Muslims are trying to expel the Christians from the camp," Mr Michaux claimed.
