Getty ImagesSeveral Eurostar trains between London, Paris and Brussels have been hit by delays ahead of the Easter weekend.
At least one train has been cancelled, and four others delayed by at least an hour, according to the Eurostar website.
A message on the site says Eurostar is "currently experiencing delays on our routes due to technical and operational incidents".
The delays have been caused by a fire near the tracks, it says, without giving further details or the location.
Earlier on Friday, the fire brigade put out a fire underneath a bridge near Ebbsfleet International, according to a post on X by Network Rail Kent and Sussex.
It said services had been impacted and replacement buses were now in operation.
Southeastern Railway later wrote on X that the line had reopened but "at a reduced speed of 160kph (100mph)".
Reports in France said trains to and from Gare du Nord station in Paris were affected, and facing severe disruption.
"We are doing our best to get the situation resolved as soon as possible, and apologise for any inconvenience," Eurostar wrote on its website.
