Thousands of UK and US scouts attending the World Scout Jamboree in South Korea are being removed from the official campsite in the south-western county of Buan amid a suffocating heatwave.
The event, which started this week, has drawn 43,000 young scouts from 158 countries, with the UK contingent the largest at 4,500.
Hundreds of people have needed treatment for heat-related ailments in recent days.
UK Scouts said in a statement on Saturday that young people and adult volunteers had begun arriving in Seoul and were settling into their accommodation.
The US contingent will take part in the jamboree programme on Saturday before moving to the US army garrison Camp Humphreys near the jamboree site on the following day.
