BBC News
November 12, 2023"Homeless people's tents in central London have been destroyed during a Met Police operation.
"Refuse workers threw the tents into the back of their lorry on Huntley Street, Camden, at about 15:00 GMT on Friday.
"Elodie Berland, who volunteers with outreach organisation Streets Kitchen, recorded the scene after being called there by some of the homeless men.
"The Met said it 'worked with University College London Hospital and other partners in response to concerns'.
"It is understood that the NHS hospital trust, which has a building entrance on the road, requested the dispersal of rough sleepers but not the destruction of tents.
"Refuse company #Veolia was contacted for comment."
